snacks | This super-easy crunchy snack reminds us of spiced nuts – perfect for the movies, a mid-afternoon snack or in place of croutons in salads.

1 sprays cooking spray
2 tsp olive oil
1 1/2 Tbsp curry powder
1/4 tsp ground coriander
1/2 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp table salt, or to taste
31 oz canned chickpeas, rinsed, drained and dried

Instructions


1. Preheat oven to 400°F. Coat a cookie sheet with cooking spray.
2. Heat a small pan over medium-high heat. Add oil, spices and salt and stir until fragrant, about 1 to 2 minutes.
3. Place chickpeas in a large bowl. Add spice mixture and mix well to coat chickpeas.
4. Place chickpeas on cookie sheet in a single layer and roast in oven until crunchy, checking and shaking pan twice during cooking, about 1 1/4 hours. Yields about 1/2 cup per serving. (Store any leftovers in an air-tight container.)
