I do usually bounce between black beans and chick peas. Every once in a while I switch it up with navy or kidney beans, but black and garbanzo are probably half my diet by weight and volume
Lentils are great though, even more nutritious… Unfortunately I really don’t like them
Add in some onions, maybe sliced zucchini and eggs, some cayenne pepper and garlic? Amazing. Just ate a wrap of that without the rice and with some lacinato kale and Sriracha… Like 5 minutes of effort, better than most restaurant food, and I threw myself against a boss in elden ring several times while it was cooking
Plus, if you have an air fryer you can roast the chick peas with heavy spices and a little oil, and you get a delicious and filling snack
It’s pretty great - you can add paprika and cumin for a Mexican twist as well
I’ve never gone far with citrus and herbs - herbs for sure, but I’ll have to start experimenting with citrus too. I know it’s underrated, but I’ve never thought of adding it to beans… I can see how it could work though, lime goes great on fajitas or onions, I bet I can get a few new twists out of this
And if it gets old you can use like garbanzo beans or lentils instead

Hell yeah.

We usually make lemon and herb sauce and spinach/kale with it, but that sounds so good! Never dawned on me to do a more “red” spiced version with egg.

That’s fair. I like them fried with garlic and salt
