But this lunch makes me so happy. I'm in college and eating makes me feel like I have learned how to feed myself. Thank you thank you for the simple recipes. (And for the winning hearts and minds cake. I have more friends because of that cake.)

Quick, easy, filling and healthful, too, it made a lovely lunch today. I've been on a major Molly-style cooking kick lately. This week alone I concocted the raspberry-blueberry pound cake (for my dad’s birthday), banana bread with chocolate chips and candied ginger, and now these awesome chickpeas. All will be added to my regular recipe repertoire. Thanks!

But there is nothing like a bowl of chickpeas to make a vegetarian’s heart race and flutter.I think I’m going to try out your salad tonight to console myself after American Airlines grounded my vacation plans 🙁

Thankyou so much, you are single handedly revolutionizing the way we eat healthfully. We’ve made damn near every one of your salads and our favorites are this, and the warm chicken salad.Sarah

I think you just summed it up right here! Simple, balanced, and each bite delicious.Also, having now cooked in DC Sarah’s small apartment, I can vouch that you have indeed become a fixture! We are counting down until we can add your book to our collections.

Only the strongest willpower I’ve ever had to muster kept me from plunking myself down on the couch and eating the entire bowl in one fell swoop.It’s funny; every morning now I wake up and think “hmmmm…what will I make from Orangette today?” You’ve become a fixture in my little apartment 🙂

Three cheers for winning over the chickpea haters of the world! Thanks should really go, however, to Lynne Rossetto Kasper and the author of Fresh Food Fast, since they are the true sources of your victory. Alas, I’m only the messenger…

It also won over a self-professed chickpea hater. This is a feat in and of itself, since he normally wrinkles his nose and covers his mouth as soon as he sees them. (I think he was tempted when he saw the way I was wolfing it down.)

Thank you!
