Roasted Chickpeas


This is a really yummy snack. They have great flavor and a good crunch and are much better for you than chips if you are craving something salty!

Roasted Chickpeas
Ingredients:
1 15-oz can Garbanzo Beans
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp red pepper flakes
1/2 tsp paprika
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 400 degree F.
Drain and rinse the garbanzo beans in a large colander. Continue to rinse until all the foamy liquid goes away.
Line the counter with a few sheets of paper towel. Place the drained garbanzo beans on top of the paper towel and let them dry for a few minutes.
Once the beans are dried, place them on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and then sprinkle on the spices. Using your hands, toss the beans around so they are all fully coated.
Place the baking sheet in the oven for 20 minutes to roast. After 20 minutes, remove the pan from the oven and give the beans a little shake and then place back into the oven for another 20 minutes.

  2. I did kind of :)...but They have a little kick, so if you make them and you don't want them very spicy, I would omit the red pepper flakes and just do a dash of cayenne pepper. I hope you like them, I love them!
