I did make something like this once, I cooked them a little too long, but the edible ones were great..lol
I'll have to try it again.
One time I came across dried chickpeas with the dry beans and such, they were good, you could just rehydrate however many you wanted to use at a time. For salad I like the small cans, but sometimes I just put some chickpeas and black olives in a bowl together and eat some for a snack.
thanks for sharing, I'm going to try this again, yummy yum
