Nutritional values

With plenty of protein, iron and magnesium, chickpeas are little powerballs. We need the protein to maintain and build muscles, iron for blood formation and oxygen transport and magnesium for strong nerves.

If you want to prepare the chickpea chorizo stew vegan, replace the sausage with tofu. Dice the tofu and let it stand in a marinade of olive oil, soy sauce and paprika powder for about 30 minutes. Then fry it in a pan at medium heat and sprinkle it over the finished stew.
