A few weeks ago I bought a couple cans of chick peas. I wasn't quite sure what I was going to do with them, but I wanted to do something. I started to research roasting them, and after my first handful, I couldn't understand why I hadn't done this sooner. They were delicious! Oddly enough, my two year old was obsessed with them which is great because they're a healthy treat. They have iron too, which I'm terribly in need of, so that's an added bonus. I used a recipe I found on this blog but made a couple changes to cater to my family's taste buds.
Here's what you need:
1 can of chick peas (15 oz)
1 tbsp olive oil
1/2 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp coriander
1/4 tsp cloves
1/4 tsp salt (add more to taste, if you prefer more salt like I do)
1/8 tsp chili pepper
1/8 tsp paprika
What to do:
Drain and rinse the chick peas and combine all the ingredients in a bowl. Mix them well to coat the chick peas. Spray some oil (Pam, or whatever kind you have) on a baking sheet and spread the chick peas on it. Put them into the preheated 400 degree oven for about a half hour, adding a little more time if you prefer them crunchy. Be sure to turn them a couple times. Enjoy!
