roasted chickpeas - yum!
Here's what you need:
one can garbanzo beans (or more - I made two cans and we ate almost all of them)
olive oil
salt
other seasoning if desired
Drain the garbanzo beans and rinse them. Spread them on a towel and cover without another towel to soak up as much liquid as possible.
Spread them in a single layer on a baking sheet.
Drizzle with olive oil and stir them around.
Bake at 400 degrees for 30 minutes, stirring once or twice during the cooking process.
Sprinkle with salt and other seasoning as desired. I had some creole seasoning left over from something I made a long time ago. It worked great.
They are a delicious crunchy salty snack and full of protein!

Mmmm... I just love love love chickpeas. I quick eating meat about 8 mos ago and have learned some pretty creative things with these like making them into a "tuna" salad... delicious!!
You just mash them with a fork or pulse them in a chopper... leaving them a little chunky, then add your favorite "tuna" salad items such as chopped celery, onions, mayo and to make it a bit more "tuna" flavored I add 1/2-1 tsp of soy sauce... so yummy on either whole wheat crackers or toast :)
Peace & Blessings... Kelly
