Roasted Chickpea Snack

---

Winter to me equals warm cozy evenings spent bundled up at home with a movie, a book, a loved one and a good snack. I’m a huge fan of these roasted chickpeas for the flavor, crunch and nutrition they pack in. Make these roasted chickpeas as a popcorn replacement for a snack all on their own or as part of your weekly meal prep to top your favorite salad and winter bowls.

Why Chickpeas?: Chickpeas are a great source of fiber and vegetarian source of protein at 14 grams per cup so you’ll get some sustained energy and satiation from this healthy snack.
