CHICKEN

My newly-found love of chickpea means… I am going to have to learn how to make felafel.  Is it wrong that I’ve always loved felafel street vendors, but I never realized that chickpeas are frequently the primary ingredient? Duh. This next Call honors a street tradition as well.  Don’t miss this opportunity…
