Roasted Chickpeas

So recently I was browsing through my new Pinterest application on my phone and came across a recipe for roasted chickpeas!  Chickpeas are high in fiber and contain a little bit of protein.  Everyone loves a salty snack once in while and its great to have a recipe just in case those cravings kick in!  I believe in clean eating, so instead of hitting the chips, get your roast on!
The prep time is about 5 minutes and they take about 45 minutes to cook.

Cant wait to give em a try!!

Ingredients

• 1 (12 ounce) can chickpeas (garbanzo beans), drained
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• salt (optional)
• garlic salt (optional)
• cayenne pepper (optional)

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
2. Blot chickpeas with a paper towel to dry them. In a bowl, toss chickpeas with olive oil, and season to taste with salt, garlic salt, and cayenne pepper, if using. Spread on a baking sheet, and bake for 30 to 40 minutes, until browned and crunchy. Watch carefully the last few minutes to avoid burning.
