This is a wonderful vegetarian meal for the BBQ. It is great for a speedy weekday supper meal and also works as a great leftover for lunch, or prepare it at home, and pack it to make while camping! This meal is not only loaded with flavour but also nutrition since it is high in vitamin C, iron, calcium, protein and fibre.

What you need:chickpeas

  • 2 cans (19 oz or 540ml each can) chickpeas (garbanzo beans) drained and rinsed
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 large sweet onion, chopped into long slices
  • 4 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 red peppers, chopped into long slices
  • 6 cups kale, chopped into bite-sized pieces
  • Salt and pepper to taste

kaleHow you prepare:

1. Heat BBQ and prepare a greased BBQ basket or pan.

2. Meanwhile, mix together chickpeas, garlic, onion, red peppers and olive oil in a bowl and add to BBQ basket and place on the grill. Stir regularly until chickpeas are slightly browned, onions and red peppers are softened and grilled.

3. When almost ready to serve add kale and stir constantly until the kale is slightly wilted. Serve immediately either on its own, or with garlic toast, pita brered pepperad or over rice.

Success Stories

As a professional athlete I have found that the physical demands of my sport call for a very scientific approach to nutrition coupled with expert knowledge of sport-specific training routines. It was not until I begin nutritional sessions with Andrea that my objective of adding positive pounds (size and strength) in the amount of 15-20 lbs was realized. Moreover, I was able to achieve my goals in a much shorter time-span than I originally thought possible. Thanks to Andrea, and her professional, sport-specific advice, I have achieved my weight-gain objectives, which has in turn greatly enhanced my game – all without compromising my dietary restrictions.

~ John Kilbride, Calgary Roughnecks
