I am doing Wieght Watchers with my mom and my sister, and I have been having a hard time with snack food! Well I found this amazing blog. All of her recipes look so good!! I decided since I was off today that I would make a couple of snacks and try them out. Ok I will admit that I was missing being in the kitchen too!
The recipe that I was really excited to try is called Healthy Roasted Chickpea Snack.
• 15 oz can chickpeas, drained
• olive oil spray
• salt
• 1 tsp chili pepper powder (to taste)
• 1 tsp cumin
• 1 tsp paprika
• 1 tsp coriander
• 1 tsp curry powder
• 1 tsp garlic powder
Preheat oven to 375°. Drain chickpeas in a colander and let them dry completely. Pat dry with a paper towel if needed.
Arrange on a baking sheet in a single layer and roast for about 30-35 minutes, shaking the pan every ten minutes. All ovens are different so make sure they don't burn. They will be golden brown and crunchy on the inside when done, not moist.
In a medium bowl, combine all the spices. Remove chickpeas from oven when done and spray with olive oil spray. Immediately toss with spices while hot. Eat at room temperature.
All I have to say is that they are so delicious!!
Do these turn out crunchy? Like wasabi peas?
ReplyDeleteI want to try them.
They were last night but got softer today. I think I am going to cook them a little longer next time!
