Pastene Italian (ceci cotti) Chick Peas
Chickpeas called "ceci" in Italian or "Garbanzo Beans" in Spanish, are an excellent nutritional choice.
A serving of chick peas, about one half a cup (130g), has about 6 grams of dietary fiber and 7 grams
of protein. Chick peas can be served in a number of ways. Heated and seasoned with olive oil or served
cold as an addition to any salad. Drained, rinse and pureed with tahini, lemon juice, garlic, and olive oil for a
creamy Hummus. They have a rich meaty flavor that makes them a family favorite.
INGREDIENTS: Chick Peas, Water, Salt,
Gluten Free

Our Chickpeas are the Best
It's not just our opinion; a number of top brands were examined in the "Cooks Illustrated Tasting Lab" and
Pastene's Chickpeas were rated "Highly Recommended". Here is what the folks at Cooks Illustrated(.com) had to say about our product:
ONE COOL CHICK(PEA)
Pastene Chick Peas won raves from tasters for their clean, salty--but not too salty-- flavor and their firm yet tender texture.
