Crunchy Chickpeas: Guiltless Snacking at Its Best
Looking for easy and healthy snacks to make? A gluten-free soup or salad topper?
You’ll love these barbecue spiced crunchy chickpeas. We like them best right out of the oven when they’re warm and crispy.
The spice options are endless, but you can never go wrong with a good barbecue spice blend.
TIP: Wait to add your spices until just after roasting to avoid burning them.
