Spicy chickpeas

serving of this low-fat snack contains 4.5g of protein. Get a 400g can or tin of chickpeas - some
people call them garbanzo beans. Put them in a bowl and mix with 1 tsp of vegetable oil. Then
add spices to taste - I like to use one tablespoon of chili powder and 1 teaspoon of cumin, but
you can also add black pepper, garlic powder, or paprika.
Put the chickpeas on a baking sheet and spread them out as much as possible so they all cook at
the same time.
Bake in the oven at 180ÅãC for at least 25 minutes until they’re dry and crispy. Let them cool and
put on a very little bit of salt before serving. They will keep fresh for a week if you put them in a
bag or plastic box.
