Nutritional values
These chickpeas are rich in protein, iron, and magnesium. We need the protein to maintain and build muscles, iron for blood formation and oxygen transport, and magnesium for strong nerves.
If you would like to increase the proportion of vegetables, you can fry two diced carrots together with the onions. The vegan chickpea and spinach pot is a delicious lunch that can be prepared and taken to work. It is also delicious as a cold salad. If you like, you can season the stew with curry.
