Roasted Chickpeas is a great munching snack for both kids and adults. This simple recipe is also a great alternative to the deep fried version usually available in the market. The only challenge you may face is to control the urge to pop them in your mouth while making them!

You can use anything from Garam masala to mixed herbs for flavor. You can also use Cinnamon-sugar if you like them sweet. These roasted chickpeas are best eaten straight out of the oven as they may not stay as crisp if stored for a longer time. To the spiced Roasted Chickpeas, add some chopped onions and fresh herbs like coriander /mint, squeeze some lime juice and enjoy a healthy, protein rich snack.

Enjoy the Roasted Chickpea as a snack and it can be sent for snack box also.
