Chickpeas

Chickpeas are high in protein and dietary fiber, are a good source of potassium, vitamin C and folate, and are cholesterol free. The minerals such as iron, calcium, and zinc present in chickpeas contribute to maintaining healthy bones and teeth. Due to their high-fiber content, they also help prevent constipation and promote a healthy digestive tract. You could add chickpeas to salads, or even curries.
