I am not really a lover of chick peas. I think I must have tasted them once at a luncheon. I once got them at a fair when I entered a competition by picking a number, and a can of chick peas was in the package which corresponded to that number. Well, I never used them, I just gave them away when my church had their own fair and was asking for contributions from the members. However, if I were to use them, I would probably just warm them up and put them at the side of a rice dish along with the other vegetables. In fact, they can be used with any dish, but I would most likely use them with rice. You can also season them to taste if you wish, but they are not something that I usually use.
