Who loves a healthy salty, cunchy snack and bonus it's healthy! I know I do. This snack meets the pefect criteria for a healthy snack because it is protein and fiber filled.

Ingredients

• 15 oz chickpeas, 1 can, drained and rinsed
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon chili powder
• ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
• ½ teaspoon salt

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Carefully dry the chickpeas. Removing the skins is optional and they will come off easily. The drier you get them, the crunchier they’ll be!
3. In a medium bowl, add dried chickpeas, olive oil, cumin, chili powder, cayenne pepper and salt. Toss well to coat evenly.
4. Spread chickpeas out on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet.
5. Roast for 15-20 minutes.
6. Mix around on baking sheet and roast for additional 15-20 minutes, or until browned.
7. Cool for 5-10 minutes.
8. Enjoy!
