Garbanzo beans — versatile legume base for hummus, salads, and curries.

Strong protein-fiber-carb combo. Roasted chickpeas are a high-protein crunchy snack alternative.

Best for

  • training days and glycogen refill — 27g carbs / 100g
  • budget meals where cheap energy density matters

Watch out

  • portion creep — cooked volume looks bigger than the grams you meant
  • sauces and oils that turn a carb staple into a hidden calorie sink

How to log it

Weigh cooked chickpeas (cooked) if that is the state in the DB serving. 1 cup cooked (~164g) is the practical unit in the app.

Where it fits the day

Best next to a protein source. Alone it is fuel, not a complete macro plan.

Cooked, grilled, fried & breaded

Plain chickpeas (cooked) is the baseline above. Oil, frying, and restaurant prep usually raise the estimate — typical kcal per 100g:
