Healthy Snack--Roasted Chick Peas


While looking for ways to clear out the surplus of chick peas/garbanzo beans in my pantry, I ran across a this recipe. As always, I have tweaked it to suit my own preferences.

  • Rinse 2 cans of chick peas.
  • Spray a baking sheet with olive or canola oil or coat with 2-3 Tbl of olive or canola oil.
  • Pour chick peas onto baking sheet and stir to coat with oil.
  • Sprinkle with spices of your choice- I used salt, pepper, onion powder, and paprika.
  • Bake at 400 degrees for 30 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes.
  • Let cool and store in the refrigerator.
This is a healthy alternative snack to SAD(standard American diet) junk food. Give it a try!
