Chickpea Tofu
This is an easy alternative to soy-based tofu that can be used in almost any savory dish that would taste great with chickpeas—which is a lot. You can marinate, bake, stir fry, or scramble this chickpea tofu.
Creamy Quinoa & Kale Salad
This is a classic recipe—one of the first our GFCS founder ever shared online a bazillion internet years ago (2009). A version of it also made it into her first book YumUniverse.
