Creamy, garlicky pepper white beans with spinach, finished with an irresistible crispy chickpea crumble, is the high-protein pantry meal I make on repeat, because it doesn’t even taste like a pantry meal. (20g protein, 13g fiber, 8mg iron. Soy-free with gluten-free and nut-free options)

This creamy garlic pepper sauce with beans and kale or spinach is fantastic on its own. But then we level it up with this crispy chickpea breadcrumb topping, which adds texture, another pop of flavor, and more even protein and fiber. Think high protein croutons!

There is tons of protein in this recipe (80 grams in the entire pan) along with about 52 grams of fiber and 32 milligrams of iron. There is protein from the beans, chickpeas, cashews, hemp seeds, nutritional yeast, and kale, along with loads of fiber from the beans, chickpeas, kale, and hemp seeds.

This is a nutrient-packed meal, and you can increase the protein and fiber even more, depending on what sides you serve it with. Serve it with a side of multigrain bread or a good sourdough to bump up the protein and fiber even more. It’s also rich in iron, folate, magnesium, potassium, and B vitamins, and it comes together pretty quickly.

You can also serve it over pasta, baked potatoes, or roasted vegetables. Or make a quick bean toast by topping bread with the creamy beans and air frying for 6 to 7 minutes for a super quick and satisfying lunch. It smells so good as it’s cooking. It smells peppery, cheesy, and heavenly. 

The crispy chickpeas on top are so addictive! You can use that topping over any pasta or salad. The topping alone is a must-make.

This recipe uses two cans of beans. The whole can of white beans will simmer in the creamy garlic sauce, while you are dividing up a can of chickpeas. Some of the chickpeas get blended into the sauce to make it creamy, and the rest gets crisped up to make this amazing breadcrumb topping.

When people think of Indian food, they tend to think of Indian curries. But Indian cuisine that goes so far beyond curries and other saucy dishes served with flatbread and rice. There are so many creative ways that you can serve classic Indian dishes!

These saucy, chili garlic curry leaf beans are basically taking the sauce inspired from my tofu majestic, simplifying it, and adding beans to it. And it works so beautifully! It’s saucy, spicy, delicious, and pairs really well with lots of different components.

We make the beans along with a creamy, whipped tofu and pair these with a quick onion ring salad. Then, we’re going to pair these components in lots of different ways: on toast, as a dip, over baked potatoes or crispy potatoes(chili cheese fries style), or as crispy tacos!
