Crispy Chickpeas Ingredients
- Chickpeas: Otherwise known as garbanzo beans. I recommend using low sodium and organic canned chickpeas and the rinsing and draining them of the canning liquid.
- Extra Virgin Olive Oil: We use olive oil to roast our chickpeas in the oven. If you don't have olive oil, you can also use any other high temperature oil such as avocado oil.
- Salt and Pepper: Use salt and pepper to season and flavor the crispy chickpeas.
