Product Reviews
I'm a fitness instructor and these green chickpeas have become my go-to post-workout snack! The protein content is amazing and they're so versatile. I love that they're locally grown in the Pacific Northwest. Sometimes I just sauté them with garlic and lemon - so simple and delicious. Will definitely keep buying!
Good product overall. The chickpeas are fresh and have a nice color. I just wish they came in smaller packages as it's just me and my wife. We end up having to use the whole bag within a week once opened. But the quality is definitely there - you can taste the difference from regular chickpeas.
As a vegetarian, I'm always looking for quality protein sources. These green chickpeas are incredible! I use them in everything - from making green hummus to adding them to my Indian curries. They have such a fresh, nutty flavor that's completely different from canned chickpeas. The texture is perfect too - not mushy at all.
Finally, a convenient way to get green chickpeas! I've been using these in my meal prep for the past two months. They're amazing in salads and stir-fries. The fact that they're flash frozen means they retain all their nutrients and that beautiful green color. Zero sodium is a huge plus for my diet. Highly recommend!
I discovered Nature's Classic Green Chickpeas at Costco last month and they've become a staple in our household! As a mom of three, I'm always looking for healthy snacks and these are perfect. The kids love them in their lunch boxes and I feel good knowing they're getting 10g of protein per serving. So much better than regular chickpeas - these actually have flavor!
