A Favorite Snack

Whenever we're craving a salty treat...or dinner's just taking too long to cook, we make these Roasted Chickpeas. Before you run for the hummus hills, give it a chance! Its more like French Fries, but round and HEALTHY! And for you haters out there, YES- EVEN GARRETT LIKES THEM (that's his hand in the picture!)



Here's how to make your own:
You need:
1 can chickpeas (or garbonzo beans if that's how you roll)
2 T olive oil (or Pam spray, or veggie oil...whatever)
a seasoning mix you love (we love Spike!)

Preheat the oven to 350. Toss the peas, oil and seasoning together in a small bowl. Then, spread them onto a cookie sheet in a single layer. Place them into the oven, and bake until toasty and brown (usually about 20 minutes.) Serve hot, or cool and store in a covered container in the fridge.

I think you could probably do this in the broiler and get a good toasty color on them, but in the oven they get a little crispy bite to them! I'm sure they are great sprinkled on salads or garnishing lovely grilled fish...but at our house, these chickpeas never even make it out of the kitchen!

ENJOY!
