Preparation Notes

– In a pot, add split peas and submerge in water to soak overnight (optional step). To cook, submerge with water and bring to a rolling boil, then reduce the heat and cook until peas are soft. Use a spoon to mash. Season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Fold into the mash some canned chickpeas (or freshly cooked from dry if you prefer)

– Cut potatoes into a small dice and lay on a sheet pan. Oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast in the oven at 400F for 25 minutes

Remarks

– For additional protein, this dish will be paired with a high-protein bagel

– This recipe was motivated by a challenge to make a nutrient dense breakfast that had no soy, eggs, or meat. I'm not vegetarian / vegan personally but am looking to incorporate more plant-based meals in my diet.
