• LYNNE'S TIPS:.
• Make extra and toss along with leftover tofu, seitan, shrimp, or cooked chicken breast into mixed greens for an entrée salad the next day.
• Substitute cannelini beans for the chickpeas and toss in some chopped good-quality salami.
• Simmering canned beans in lightly salted water for several minutes freshens them up. The warmed beans also absorb better the flavors of the vinaigrette.
• THOUGHTS FROM LYNNE:.
• On Canned Beans: Canned beans are the answer to little time and money. They taste every bit as good as those cooked from scratch, and they're packed with nutrition, including fiber, protein, complex carbohydrates and B vitamins. Add them to soups, toss them into green salads, or dress them with flavorful oils, vinegar and herbs.
• On Chickpeas: For my money, the chickpea should be canonized into the food lover's hall of fame. It is meaty, sweet and friendly with just about every seasoning and ingredient. Of course Peter Berley has known this for years.
