Well Wednesday with Charlotte – Chilli Chickpea Pitas

This week, Charlotte showed us another way to use the humble chickpea – as a healthy filler for pita bread bites. Packed with goodness and a little spice, they make a great energy-boosting snack for a winter afternoon in the office, or as a great accompaniment to salad and other light bites.
