This is a really healthy snack and super delicious! Garbanzo beans are full of fiber (two cups provide a full days worth!). It doesn't make a lot, so if you are going to share them, I would double it.
Ingredients:
1/4 tsp cumin
1/4 tsp chili powder
1/4 tsp paprika
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1/2-3/4 tsp sea salt (mine is unrefined, that's why it's has colored flecks)
1 tbsp olive oil (I used 2 tbsp and it was far too much)
1/2 lemon's juice
1 15oz can garbanzo beans (chick peas - same thing..you can also use hominy, which I really want to try)
Preheat your oven to 450 degrees. Line a cookie sheet with foil or parchment paper. Drain the garbanzo beans and pat dry with a paper towel. Spread them out on the cookie sheet and place in the oven for 10 minutes. Set a timer!
While you are waiting, pull out the needed spices. Mmmm spices! You can really add anything you want. You don't have to put the same spices that I did. If you want it spicier, add cayenne pepper.
In a medium bowl, combine your spices, olive oil, and lemon juice.
Should look thinner than this (remember, I used 2 tbsp olive oil instead on one)
Once the beans (peas?...) have roasted for 10 minutes, pull them out, and toss them in your olive oil mixture. Then put them back on the cookie sheet.
Put them back in the oven for another 8 minutes. Toss them around a bit, and roast another 8-10 minutes. Watch them carefully towards the end, because they will burn!
Enjoy!!! My picky 2 year old loved them! She told me they tasted like "gum". Hmmmm....interesting!
