A cozy chickpea soup loaded with lime, turmeric, and a crunchy topping of honey mustard-glazed nuts and seeds.
We love soup. Not only because it makes great leftovers, but because it’s a great excuse to bring out your best topping game.
This colorful chickpea soup is best served with a squeeze of lime juice, fresh cilantro and a handful of Second Nature Snacks Honey Mustard Protein mix. This savory blend is a combo of honey mustard glazed almonds, cashews and pecan pieces, pepitas, peanuts and dry roasted edamame. The perfect crunch to add to a soup!
