Salad is good for both lunch and dinner. Greens can be any, but a combination of coriander, basil and parsley is especially suitable. You can also add green onions. Chickpeas do not cook quickly, so I usually boil them in large quantities and freeze them, and then use them to prepare salads, second courses and add them to soups. By the way, the water in which chickpeas were cooked can be used as a tonic for the skin of the face. The decoction has an exfoliating and rejuvenating effect. And you can also rinse your mouth with this decoction for diseases of the oral cavity, it has an anti-inflammatory effect. When using the decoction inside, it cleanses the intestines, helps to remove parasites from the body and even increases male strength!
