Because they taste good obviously. Imagine a snack that is healthy for you and that at the same time tastes amazing, well with these roasted chickpea recipe you will get what you are asking for, in addition to that I offer you two spice mixes so you can switch the taste of your snack if you like.

First of all you need to drain and dry your chickpeas, to dry them just lightly pat them with some paper towels

When they are all dry simply add them to a bowl and add the ingredients you wish, there are no specific measurements because you can add the spices as you wish, be sure to add the olive oil so your chickpeas roast to perfection.

Roasting

For the roasting be sure your oven is preheated to 400°F or 200°C, to roast your chickpeas add them to a baking tray on a single layer and put them in your oven for half an hour, after that time has past turn them and add them back to your oven for another half hour, be sure to check on your chickpeas constantly so they do not burn as some of mine did.

All Done!
