What are your favorite six-ingredients-or-less recipes? (beehaw.org)

Growing up I enjoyed a book called "Six Ingredients or Less" which - you guessed it - featured recipes that used only six ingredients or less. Do you have a killer recipe or two that fits this theme?

Spices (dried or fresh) don't count. Bonus points if it is at least somewhat healthy.

Chickpea Salad:

  • canned chickpeas, drained and rinsed
  • tahini (a scoop or two)
  • sliced almonds
  • red onion, diced
  • celery, diced
  • splash of apple cider vinegar
  • Seasonings: salt, pepper, cumin seed, coriander

Mash the chickpeas just a bit in a bowl (pastry cutter works well). You want to keep it pretty chunky. Add all the other ingredients and mix. I don’t measure anything, but I have a pretty heavy hand with the seasonings. This is best after it sits for a few hours. I like to eat it on toast or just by itself (usually at night in front of the fridge).

Do you throw the almonds in as is or do you toast them first?

I’ve never even considered toasting the almonds, but I bet that would be good.
