Super yum! Great for snacking, and as Deb said, they'd be delish in salads. I wish I'd have given mine an extra 5 minutes, I was worried they'd be too well done (never know with my oven), so I set it a bit early - next time I'll leave them in the full time to get the full-on crunch. Thanks, planthappymamma, for the great recipe! Made for Veggie Swap 28 - September.

These were very good. I was very pleased the the crispiness of the final product and enjoyed the flavor of the seasonings very much.

A very tasty snack that would also be good on soups and salads, these chickpeas crisped up very nicely and the spices are perfect. I made two batches one as written and one adding a 1/2 teaspoon black pepper both very yummy. Thanks for the post.
