Roasted Chickpeas

Roasted Chickpeas

This snack is is the equivalent of pop corn - so crunchy, salty, and addicting. Chickpeas have tons of protein and fiber making them a more nutritious option.


Ingredients:

2 can chickpeas (garbanzo beans)
2 Tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
Sprinkling of Cajun spices
Sprinkling of salt and pepper

Pour cans of chickpeas into a colandar and rinse well. Pat them with paper towel to remove excess moisture. Spread chick peas onto a baking sheet and cover with oil, Cajun spices and salt/pepper. Shake the pan to evenly distribute oil and spices. Cover them lightly with tin foil - just lay the foil on top without folding the edges over the pan. The foil is to prevent them from exploding all over your oven. Place them in a 400 degree oven for 30-45 minutes, or until crispy.
