Welcome!

I’m Elaine, and I love creating and trying all sorts of healthy and (sometimes not so healthy) recipes! I’m allergic to dairy, eggs and nuts, so a lot of people assume that I just eat lettuce and plain chicken breasts all day, but I started Wandering Chickpea to prove that even if you have allergies or other diet restrictions, you can still enjoy a wide variety of delicious foods! I’m a Cross Country runner, so I’m always hungry and know the importance of fueling your body with quality ingredients. On my blog, you’ll find simple, wholesome recipes, (often containing chickpeas) that will make you feel good inside and out!
