This past Monday we had fun sharing a favorite SmartGirlVeg recipe, Crispy Chickpea Munchies, with Teresa LaBarbera of CT Style on WTNH, New Haven's ABC affiliate.
Check out the video below (and be sure to "like" it!). Let us know if you try this delish snack at home!
Crispy roasted chickpeas are still one of our favorite vegetarian snacks. They are crunchy like chips, but each cup of chickpeas brings about 14 to 15 grams of protein plus plenty of fiber. The basic method is simple: rinse and thoroughly dry a can of chickpeas, toss them with a little oil and your favorite spices, and roast them on a baking sheet until they are golden and crisp, shaking the pan now and then.
For our full step-by-step version, see the crispy roasted chickpeas recipe. Looking for more snack ideas? Try the smart way to snack or our smoky butternut hummus.
