Legumes are versatile! You can use them in soups, salads, or as a meat substitute. What type of legumes do you have?

What about cooking times for lentils and chickpeas?

Lentils usually take about 20-30 minutes to cook, while chickpeas need to be soaked overnight and then boiled for about 1-2 hours.

Can I use canned chickpeas instead?
