A Unique Healthy Bean Snack
Best when dry roasted - and seasoned after cooking!. This works great for any legume, peas, and beans of any description!.
Can use dry, bagged beans, (its cheaper)!. I soaked dried chickpeas, in water, in the fridge overnight, then boiled/simmered them for like almost an hour!.
Tip: cook the peas in seasoned water!. I like to use garlic or chipotle flavored bouillon cubes in the cooking water, then I don't have to season at all once they are cooked!.
Let them cool before proceeding!.
1 (12 ounce) can chickpeas (garbanzo beans), drained
salt (optional) OR garlic salt (optional)
onion powder (optional)
cayenne pepper (optional)
OR Cajun spice blend (optional), see recipe below
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (230 degrees C) for over an hour!.
Toss the chickpeas with the spices while the peas are still wet!.
Spread on a baking sheet, and bake until browned and crunchy!. Watch carefully the last few minutes to avoid burning!.
Can keep in a jar with holes punched in the lid so can bring them to work - otherwise leave them in a bowl!. They're healthier and better tasting than cornnuts
Don’t store the roasted peas in a zip-lock baggie - they get soft and chewy!.
