Number Of Ingredients 10

1 15-ounce can No Salt Added or Low-Sodium chickpeas

1 1/2 tsp. chipotle chili powder. (If you want it hotter add more. Less hot, not so much.)

6 corn tortillas
Cashew Sour Cream
Tofu Sour Cream (lower in fat)
Guacamole
Chopped Cilantro

Steps:

  • Heat nonstick skillet over medium to medium-high heat.
  • While the pan is heating, drain and rinse chickpeas.
  • Once the pan is ready, add chickpeas and cook for about a minute.
  • Add remaining ingredients making sure to mix well to cover chickpeas. Cook until moisture has disappeared from the pan, usually a couple of minutes.
  • Divide the chickpeas between 6 tacos, top as desired and serve. My favorite is just guacamole and cilantro.
