Organic, Grain Free, Paleo

You know what's missing from a lot of healthy diets? Crunch. Unless you're talking raw vegetables, most crunchy foods are made from some variation of fried flour... and that's probably not on your regular menu. That's why I like this stuff. Think of it as panko without the bread. It's made from a single ingredient: chickpeas (garbanzo beans). Try this: Brush your chicken breasts with an egg white. Coat both sides with chickpea "bread" crumbs, and your favorite herbs and spices, then toss them in the oven at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for about 30 minutes. It's pretty darn close to fried chicken... or at least close enough for people who don't want to be fat.
