Chili Powder-Roasted Chickpeas
"I make this a lot. Great as a snack, you can give it any flavour you like by using different spices. When I am in a hurry I make it from canned chickpeas, otherwise I use dried chickpeas. Cooking time does not include soaking and cooking dried chickpeas."

I added garlic powder and it was pretty tasty. -
I used more chili powder to the chickpeas. I used canned chickpeas. I omitted the salt for personal issues. I baked them 30 minutes. They were crispy. But when they cool, they soften. But it's still tasty and healthy. Thanks Chef Dudo :) Made for PAC Spring 2013 -
These were just OK for us. We felt they could have used more seasoning. I cooked for 30 minutes and they didn't seem done so I cooked for another 10. I think they should have been cooked even longer. I will try again with other seasonings. -
I really like these and now don't feel even a little guilty about my TV snack! I did used canned chickpeas and reduced the salt but that was a mistake - added the extra back in because they needed it. Also added some garlic powder! I'll be making these a lot... Oh and I did have to bake them longer than 30 minutes - took about 50 in my oven! Made for PAC Spring '11! -
Looking for a healthier snack to take to work, I was very happy to find this recipe. My fiance and I made these two nights ago, and they're already gone. I wasn't sure he'd go for something so healthy, but he told me he'd like to make about three more batches, ha! THANK YOU! The only reason I'm giving this four stars instead of 5 is because I think maybe I should have cooked them for more than 30 minutes - they were nice and crisp on the outside but a little mushy on the inside. Overall, this is a great recipe!

I thought this was a pretty good snack, easy to make, and good to have around. I might try a different seasoning instead of the chili powder next time. My family wasn't too impressed, but I liked it enough to make it just for me. Thanks!
