Cookbook: Roasted Chick Peas


Have you guys ever tried roasted chick peas? Well they're quite a tasty snack. To quote the wise Mr. Pringle, once you pop, you just can't stop. They're a great source of protein and just something nice to munch on when you're desperately trying to not reach for your favorite bag of chips or oreos in an attempt to trick yourself into thinking you'll actually be able to fit into that cute bikini this year like those smokin victorias secret models (or is that just me?). Plus, they're super simple to make. There are a million different variations on the interweb and pintrest, but I just used some salt, chili powder, red pepper flakes, garlic powder, and olive oil. Pop in the oven on 350 for about 15-20 min, flipping them roughly every 5-8 min (a.k.a. shoving a spatula in the oven and just moving them around the pan). Presto! You now have yourself some roasted chick peas. You can thank me later.
