Ingredients
  

Chickpeas
  • 1 cup chickpeas (canned or cooked, thoroughly rinsed)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
Vegetables
  • 1 cup vegetables (choose from carrots, cucumbers, or bell peppers) Cut into sticks or bite-sized pieces
Dipping sauces
  • Hummus or guacamole For dipping

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. If using canned chickpeas, drain and rinse them thoroughly under cold water. Lay them out on a clean kitchen towel and pat dry.
  3. In a medium bowl, mix your dried chickpeas with olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Toss until every chickpea is evenly coated.
  4. Spread the seasoned chickpeas on a baking sheet in a single layer. Bake them in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until they are golden and crispy.
  5. While the chickpeas are roasting, wash and slice your chosen vegetables into sticks or bite-sized pieces.
  6. Once the chickpeas are ready, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly. Serve them alongside your colorful veggies and your choice of hummus or guacamole for dipping. Enjoy!

Notes

Experiment with different spices such as cumin or cayenne pepper. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for 3-4 days.
