St Paddy’s Day is coming up and I am trying to come up with some green and some irish options. Lets start off with this green Omelette/Chickpea flour pancake. 

This easy breakfast is full of awesome stuff. Spinach, cooked quinoa and chickpea flour. Add up spices of choices and fill it up with anything, grilled veggies or a potato hash or just serve as is.

    Hello wondering can you use coconut flour instead of chickpea flour?

    1. Richa says:

      nope, wont work. coconut flour will absorb up all the liquid and become a dough instead of batter and it will also burn during cooking.

    Ooo this looks so good! I have a quick question – Since I am allergic to spinach, could I use kale instead?

    1. Richa says:

      kale might taste a bit grassy. you can use chard or cilantro or omit it
