Chickpea Scramble Breakfast Tacos

September 11, 2018 by Ashleigh

These chickpea scramble breakfast tacos are so good, y’all. For some reason, it’s easy to get stuck in a rut when you try to eat healthy where every single morning is a smoothie and there don’t seem to be any other options– especially if you’re trying to avoid grain. But my husband is a breakfast man and he gets grumpy if we do too long on the smoothie train without a breakfast meal every once in awhile. These are so easy and so delicious. I hope you’ll give them a shot. If you cook the chickpeas yourself, over cook them a little and the texture of this dish will be amazing. But even if you use canned chickpeas it will work out wonderfully.

You can find the tortillas I love here: Siete Cassava & Coconut Tortillas.

  • Prep Time: 15m
  • Cook Time: 15m
  • Total Time: 30m
  • Serves: 4 People

Ingredients

  • cup cooked chickpeas
  • 1 cup red onion, diced
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, diced
  • 1 cup red bell pepper, diced
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 1 cup water
  • 1/2 teaspoon Himalayan salt
  • 1 package Siete Cassava & Coconut Tortillas (see description above)
  • 1/2 avocado, sliced
  • 1 jalapeño, sliced (optional)
  • 1/2 cup Surfrider Sauce (optional, see description)
  • 1/2 cup Cashew Cream

Instructions

  1. In a large pan, sauté the onions, tomato, red pepper, and garlic together in 2 tablespoons of water over medium high heat. Add more water by the tablespoon as needed to prevent sticking. Continue to cook for 5 to 7 minutes until the vegetables are cooked through and slightly browned.
  2. Add the chickpeas and salt to the pan and continue cooking over medium high heat. Use a potato masher or the back of a spoon to roughly mash half of the chickpeas. Cook 3 to 5 minutes until warmed through and thoroughly combined.
  3. Serve the chickpea scramble into warm tortillas of your choice. Top with avocado slices, cashew cream, jalapeño and hot sauce according to your preferences. Enjoy!
