And for pure indulgence, who can go past wattleseed shortbread, lentil brownies or gluten-free chocolate cake?

Nutritious pulses such as chickpeas, beans, peas and lentils are easy to prepare, versatile and economical. They are also a low-fat, high-fibre food listed in the ‘eat more’ category of the Australian Nutrition Foundation’s healthy eating pyramid. But, best of all, they are delicious!
