I’ve been making these chickpeas at home as a healthy snack option so I don’t turn to junk food and my girls have fallen in love with them too. I initially started them with a basic salt, pepper, olive oil and paprika seasoning. We love the basic and use them not only for snacking, but in salads, tacos, as a topping for soups (yup), and pretty much in anything I can add it to.
Talking to a friend one about our experiences in India reminded me how much I miss the hot, spicy roasted chickpeas sold on every street corner. They’re crunchy, spicy, and the perfect snack on the go.
Yum
Playing around for the spices was so much fun. And between the girls and me, I had to make multiple batches for photo op because we kept eating them straight out of the oven!
From our kitchen to yours, I hope you enjoy these Roasted Masala Chickpeas as much as we did!
