Chickpeas Three Ways

This inspiration for this recipe that I have dubbed as Chickpeas Three Ways comes from Kari who blogs Bite Sized Thoughts.  

I recently made her Sweet Potato Fudge and was delighted with it, so knew this would also hit the right spots in my belly.  

Its dainty presentation, something that my husband doesn't always appreciate.  He feels robbed, as if there i not enough on his plate.  He likes his plate piled high up, I like it neat. But there was no grumbling today, this plate of Chickpeas Three Ways is definitely a belly filler 

This made for a delicious light lunch, to sit outside in the garden and enjoy.  It would also be a fantastic starter to a posh meal.  Or treat it like a blini topped with the spiced chickpea ratatouille. And even though its quite fancy, its a very economical dish too.  Perhaps one to make for large crowds too.

I made chickpea pancakes from my recipe that you can find here. The chickpea pancake recipe makes a lot, but it can be reheated in a microwave for 30 seconds to give it some warmth the following day, if you find yourself with some left over.The ratatouille from Curried Anglo Italian Ratatouille and traditional hummus which is beneath the chickpeas pancakes from here, but please do also check out the source of my inspiration Triple Chickpea Stack .
