Crispy Baked Chickpeas

July 29, 2009

I wish I could say that I came up with the brilliant idea to bake chickpeas, but alas, I cannot. The truth is I was getting ready for work one morning and overheard Mark Bittman talking about this healthy snack on the Today Show. I don't know why I never considered baking chickpeas!

On my way home that evening I stopped by the store and purchased two cans. I mixed the chickpeas with some olive oil and zatar spice and baked until crispy. The perfect quick and easy snack food! My next batch? A Mexican chili and lime version.

Here's how to whip up this healthy snack:

Ever since I watched the PBS series where Mario Batalli, Gwyneth Paltrow, Mark Bittman and that Spanish woman eat their way through Spain, I have had a new found love and respect for "Bitty" (Gwyneth's pet nickname for Mark Bittman). Leave it to Bitty to point us in the direction of something so simple and delicious. I am making these this weekend to serve for hors d'oeuvres with Prosecco!
