    Chickpea burgers
    If you add chickpeas to a normal coleslaw, it really bulks it out and adds a smoother texture to it (and healthy)
    Can't think of any more right now but let us know how you go.

    ETA: A bean salad with whatever you want; kidney beans, chickpeas, a bit of mayo and olive oil, celery, maybe some carrot...mmm

    Leave them unblended and add to asparagus soup with some rice pasta, yum!

    Oh also, we use them lots in the slow cooker - they really hold their shape well.
