 This is one of my favorite quick bean salads I make when I need to prep some food to last a couple days. Dairy-free garbanzo bean aka chickpea salad is my favorite because there is REALLY no cook time. Unless you would like to make your garbanzo beans fresh. Mines are out of the can but you can make this with homecooked garbanzo beans and it will be even tastier! Here is everything you need to make this delicious dish!

I'm just one person so I used one can of garbanzo beans (chickpeas) but feel free to add more if you are making this dish for more people. Black olives, Sweet relish, Plant based Mayo, Yellow Mustard, and red onion (its not pictured here but I added some sliced green olives also.
Chop everything up into a bowl of your choice (everything except the garbanzo beans) get ready to add some seasoning and our wet ingredients.
I go a little crazy with the seasonings and I added sunflower kernels. The sunflower kernels give the salad a crunch and a nutty flavor which is a great compliment to the taste in this garbanzo bean (chickpea) salad. Seasoning is optional you can use any type of seasoning that works for you here is what I put in this garbanzo bean salad: garlic powder, chopped chives, fine pink Himalayan sea salt, black pepper, cayenne pepper, ground paprika. Only use the seasonings you like in your dish.
Came out excellent! Added some crackers and topped it with some shredded dairy-free cheddar cheese. This is definitely one of my top quick recipes! Garbanzo bean salad can be a side dish for a dinner a quick snack with some crackers or just lunch by itself. You can find garbanzo beans (chickpeas) in a can for under $1.00 each or you can make them from scratch a bag might cost 1.49 but they are worth it. It's a staple in my pantry to have canned garbanzo beans and bags of dry garbanzo beans. Add them to your grocery list and start feasting!

Quick Easy Dairy Free Garbanza Bean Salad (Chickpea Salad)

 I'm learning to wait for sales on some of my favorite groceries. It takes about (3) weeks for my local Kroger to mark plant based meats down but it's worth the wait. These (2) pack of Impossible Burgers (Plant Based) are usually $6.99 and when they first came out I paid full price because I was so impressed that it tasted like I was eating a REAL burger. That was about 2 years ago. Now I focus more on beans, fruits and vegetables and make meals like these my cheat dinner nights.


Of course you have to have fries with this meal so I also wait for my favorite Checker's fries to go on sale. I can usually catch them for $2.99 with my Kroger plus card.


Here is the part I was amazed by (not the price of my groceries) I'm cooking my entire meal on my Presto electric grill and if you look at the burger it turns the EXACT same color as a real burger when being cooked! If a meat eater had this for dinner they wouldn't question the burger at all it's that on point with taste and mouth feel.


To finish off my meal I added a nice sesame hamburger bun and some onions, banana peppers, vegan sharp cheddar cheese, mustard and vegan mayo. This was so delicious at a fraction of the cost. It really does help my budget to look for sales and cook from home.

 

I was finishing up All American on Netflix and this was so good as a fun "cheat" dinner. I probably wont have it again for another month or so but that's great because I'm sure another pack of Impossible burgers will be on sale. Thanks for stopping by 💛 Stay Frugal!

Frugal Impossible Burger and Checkers Fries Dinner

 This waffle recipe is one of my favorites! The original recipe I found on Sweet Potatoe Soul's YouTube channel and adapted it to my liking. There are no eggs or dairy in these waffles and everything needed is shown below. 


Here are the ingredients for this recipe:

1 1/2 cups of whole wheat flour
1/3 cup of brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon of salt
1 teaspoon of baking powder
1/2 teaspoon of baking soda
1 tablespoon ground flax + (2) tablespoon of water (flax egg)
1 1/2 cups of almond milk (I used coconut milk)
1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/2 stick of melted plant butter

(Optional: a few pinches of allspice for taste)
Mix all ingredients in a mixing bowl with a fork. Combine until batter is smooth.

Lightly grease your waffle maker with some butter and fill your waffle maker with the homemade batter. This is a $20 waffle maker I got from Ebay. It takes about 6-8 minutes to make (2) waffles in this waffle maker.
There you have it! Some beautiful homemade vegan waffles you can enjoy with plant butter and syrup without leaving the house! Plus there is plenty more batter for 2-3 more servings. This is what I call a happy meal :) Hope you try them at home!
