#809: Garlic Roasted Chickpeas


Oh little chickpeas, how I love thee.  I'll eat you in a salad, mashed in a burger, as hummus...doesn't matter to me.  So when I saw this recipe I ran right to my pantry to find as many cans as I could. Here's what I love about this recipe.  It makes your jaw hurt because of the constant chewing....which equals portion control!! :)  Just kidding...sort of.  The longer you let these cook the crunchier they get.  So good!

1, 15-ounce can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
1 tablespoon oil (canola, olive, safflower, coconut-any kind you prefer) (I omitted and used non-stick spray instead)
1 teaspoon salt
Garlic powder

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. In a medium bowl, toss the chickpeas with oil (I used non stick spray). Spread them on a large, rimmed baking sheet. Sprinkle with salt and any additional seasoning/spice you like. Roast for about 30 minutes, or until the chickpeas begin to brown.

One entire can of chickpeas was 10.5 ww+ pts.
