Crunchy Roasted Chickpeas
Crunchy, salty, gluten free, better than croutons, power packed munching snack. Perfect for all occasions, where a crunch is needed.
We have been making these quite frequently of late for salads, flat breads, chicken dishes, or soups, so much so, we decided to create it as a recipe in it's own right. I think these little crunchy morsels deserved their own place in the spotlight!
So think croutons without the gluten and use them accordingly. I have to say, they are better than popcorn when snacking as well...so enjoy...one good recipe to use all those stored tinned chickpeas for!
