Cheezy Chickpea Tahini Drizzle

November 9, 2018 By julia

Ahhhh the feeling of having that something in the fridge that will make any meal taste and look gourmét … Well, make this, and then you’ll get that warm fuzzy feeling. That feeling of… no matter what I make… it’s going to taste fantabulous with this drizzle-y goodness. This cheezy chickpea tahini drizzle is up there as one of my faves at the moment!

I love this because it’s not as heavy as making a tahini-only sauce.

Adding those chickpeas makes the sauce go further…meaning I can smother my dish even more liberally.

It really is all about the sauce. Dinners can be so incredibly easy when you have a pre-cooked grain, protein (bean, legume, tempeh, tofu), a bunch of greens or sprouts, and a whole lot of sauce.

Pro tip:

Each week, switch up the sauce, cook up a couple different grains and proteins, and use what ever raw veggies and greens that are on sale…and you have a quick, throw-together, uber nutritious, super delicious, stress-free DINS. You could even wrap this up and take it out to lunch.

🌱 Nutrient bomb: Broccoli sprouts can pack 20–50x more cancer fighting sulforaphane than ‘normal’  broccoli 🥦 (that’s the compound linked to cancer prevention and detox support)

🌱 Tiny vitamin factory: Sprouting can increase vitamin C content by up to 600%, making them a natural immunity booster.

Randomness in life. Diversity on the plate. And ye Randomness in life. Diversity on the plate. And yes—dance breaks. All equally essential.

The more your plate looks like a rainbow, the better. 🌈

What’s the last random plant you ate?

Every time you bring a new fruit, veggie, grain, legume, tuber, seed, or nut to the table, your microbes throw a little party.

Keep it fresh, keep it varied, throw a plant party for your biome—and let those microbes flourish & help you thrive.
