Let's agree—once the summer camps end and the kids are home, you can't keep making the same meals over and over again. A little variety is needed, and if there's a healthier option, even better.

Tofu, usually made from soybeans, is prepared in this recipe from Weiler Farm using sprouted chickpeas. The result? A protein content of 8% and only 0.5% fat.

Baking it with a bit of olive oil creates the ultimate snack that both kids and adults will enjoy. You can also use it as a crunchy topping for salads or as a side for a main dish.

Ingredients:

Natural flavor chickpea tofu

Olive oil

Salt

Crushed black pepper

Instructions:

1. Slice the chickpea tofu into thin, chip-like slices.

2. Place the tofu slices in a large bowl and season with half a teaspoon of salt and a quarter teaspoon of black pepper.

3. If baking, arrange the slices on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, drizzle with olive oil, and bake in a preheated oven at 180°C for about 7 minutes until the chips turn crispy.
