Crispy Lime Chickpeas

My family loves a crispy snack and these chickpeas are so much healthier than chips. I love that they are so easy to make and high in protein. These make a great mid-afternoon snack when my kids have been playing all day long. I absolutely love that Jada Foods Chicken Salt is vegan! I was so surprised and knew that I wanted to make a recipe that would be vegan. This snack is one that I know I will be making all summer.

Crispy Lime Chickpeas
Serves 4-6
by Lindsay Blogging at Kitchen Musings Today

2 15-ounce cans of chickpeas or 3 cups cooked chickpeas
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 teaspoon Jada Foods Lime Chicken Salt, extra for serving

1. Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. Drain and rinse chickpeas. Lightly dry with paper towels and place the chickpeas in a medium bowl. Add olive oil and lime salt. Stir to coat the chickpeas. Transfer the seasoned chickpeas to the prepared baking sheet.

3. Bake the chickpeas for 20 minutes. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and give the chickpeas a little shake. Return to the oven for 10 minutes. Remove from oven and give the chickpeas a shake. Taste a chickpea (carefully, they will be hot). If they are not crispy return to the oven. Check every 5 minutes until they are crispy. Sprinkle with additional lime chicken salt and allow to cool ten minutes, transfer to a serving dish.

These are best eaten the day they are made.
