Mini Snack

Need a little pick-me-up? Something to tide you over until the next meal? These are delicious, easy to make, and healthy. Great to throw in a tuperware and throw it in your bag and head out the door.

Chickpea Nibble

1 can chickpeas, drained, rinsed, pat-dry
2 tbsp olive oil
1/2 tsp salt
pinch ground pepper
1/2 tsp favorite dried herb or spice (I like garam masala, also try thyme or oregano)

Put chickpeas in bowl. Toss with oil, add spices/herbs, salt, pepper. Arrange in single layer on baking sheet. Cook at 300 degrees, stirring occasionally until they have browned and crisped. (Recipe says about 50 minutes, some times it needs longer). Store in air tight container.
