    • Garbanzo Beans Chaat Recipe

      Garbanzo Beans Chaat ( Clean Eating Version)

      Garbanzo Beans or Chickpeas are a nutrient-rich food, providing high amounts of protein, fiber, iron, potassium, manganese, copper, zinc, phosphorus, magnesium, vitamin B-6 and thiamine, making them a healthy addition to any diet.

      They may also help you lose weight, especially if you eat them instead of higher-fat sources of protein like beef, or chicken. They are high in dietary fibre which means it’s harder for the body to digest them, in turn making their glyceminc index low.

      Garbanzo Beans Chaat (Black chickpeas) is one of Pakistani’s favorite food made with chickpeas and other spices. Everyone will like it and ask for more when you serve.

      Bakery Style Chicken Patties

      Today I’m bringing one of my favorite recipes _ “Bakery Style Chicken Patties”. A buttery, flaky pastry crust with warm, creamy chicken filling. I don’t know about you, but just typing this is making me hungry.

      This Chicken Patties recipe is super-friendly. It starts with cooked, shredded chicken. Traditional Pakistani chicken puff pastry has shredded chicken, onion that are cooked in the butter and flour mixture. And you can definitely add those in if you’d like.

      But I makes it without them and I don’t see a reason to fix things that are already perfect.

I love the idea of the Slider cups (I can’t wait to get creative and try other things with that concept) and the filling was ooey-gooey, warm and cheesy. This is a very quick and simple way to get that comfort food taste/feeling.
