Yummy vegetables! So I didn't know that chickpeas and garbanzo beans are the same thing. They should be called "super chickpeas"! I read chickpeas are the source of 10 different vitamins, can also help reduce cholesterol, improve control of blood sugar levels and insulin secretion. Oh boy, I definitely want to start eating chickpeas on a regular basis now!! So I'll keep you posted on more "super chickpeas". I think I'll try and make as many different recipes as I can with chickpeas. I hope you enjoy this snack idea. :)
Caliente for Chickpeas
Ingredients:
- 2 cans chickpeas - drained, rinsed & patted dry
- 4 Tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tsp. coarse sea salt
- 1 tsp. freshly ground black pepper
- 1 tsp. ground cumin
- 1/2 tsp. cayenne pepper (maybe try a little less, these came out quite spicy)
Directions:
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Place the chickpeas in a medium bowl and discard any loose skins. Toss
with olive oil, salt, black pepper, cumin & cayenne until evenly
coated. Spread the chickpeas on a large rimmed baking sheet and
bake, stirring occasionally, until golden and crisp. This takes about 25
minutes. Remove from the oven and bake until crunchy, about 10 minutes more. Let cool and serve at room
temperature.
