Kale Tahini Flatbreads with Roasted Chickpeas

Happy New Year guys! I hope you all had a wonderful start to 2017. It can certainly get busy at this time of the year. We all are looking for quick dinner options and lesser trips to grocery stores. And if you are in the same boat, then you need to try Blue Apron!

The first time I heard about Blue Apron, a meal delivery service was some 2 years back when I visited my brother and sister in law in New York. I remember my sister in law had made these delicious zucchini fritters and I loved them so much that I ended up asking her the recipe. So in stead of giving me the recipe, she just handed me a recipe card which had all the instructions with pictures! I was so impressed and that’s when she told me about Blue Apron. I quickly went through all the other recipes cards that she had and everything sounded so interesting. I actually ended up making an account on their website that very day, thinking that I will order one once I get back to Seattle. But as you guys know, we all get busy with our lives. So I totally forgot to order my meals with Blue Apron until last week. And I am so glad I finally did it because I really can’t tell you guys enough about how amazing Blue Apron is! These Kale Tahini Flatbreads with roasted chickpeas is one of the meals that I prepared last week from my meal box.

So when I ordered my Blue Apron meal these are the 3 meals that I received – Kale Tahini Flatbreads with Roasted Chickpeas, Spicy Cauliflower Potato & Egg Tostadas and Butternut Squash Risotto. I made all 3 but decided to share with you guys the Kale Tahini Flatbreads with Roasted Chickpeas & Beet Pear Salad because it was my favorite of the lot. These vegetarian flatbreads have pita bread as the base are are topped with chickpeas, kale & tahini. And you serve them with a side of a delicious beet and pear salad. Yum!

I have always loved Mediterranean flavors and that’s exactly what I loved the most about this dish. The addition of labneh, tahini and sumac made these flatbreads really flavorful. My favorite part was the crunchy roasted chickpeas on top! The beet and peer salad with roasted pistachios was the perfect accompaniment to the dish. The recipe card that came with the box made the entire process really simple. Since everything was pre-measured, I just had to follow the instruction and cook. And let me tell you, my hubby also helped me while making this dish. He made the salad while I made the flatbreads. So it’s also a great way to cook together and have some fun in the kitchen!
