Roasted Chickpeas

My daughter loves chickpeas. I carry them as a snack on the go for her but they are not exactly an easy grab and go snack. Since I love roasting everything, my son and I roasted chickpeas today!

My son enjoyed getting his hands slippery and dirty while tossing the chickpeas (this provided tons of entertainment), and my daughter asked to bring them as a snack on the way to the park. Healthy bonus- chickpeas are filled with fiber, protein, and iron. Get messy! Have fun! And eat healthy!
