Kitchen Tip: Stretch your usual guacamole recipe further by incorporating chickpeas into the mix! In addition to being economical, chickpeas are super nutrient-rich. They contain a number of vitamins and minerals, are a good source of protein and fibre, and have a fairly low glycemic index. Combined with potassium-rich avocadoes (which also contain super heart-healthy fats) and a scoop of satiating No Yolking™ – 100 % Egg White Protein Powder, this will become your new go-to dip!
