Roasted Jerk Chickpeas

Chickpeas are a real go-to for me. I eat them nearly every day and never get bored because they’re so versatile. They can be the hero of the dish (as with this Easy Chickpea Salad), a complimentary addition to an already flavorful recipe (this Fattoush Nachos with Crispy Za’atar Roasted Chickpeas from The Full Helping is a great example), or . . . awesome hummus.

Of course, they’re also just great on their own. That’s what’s happening here; these Roasted Jerk Chickpeas make an awesome snack when you’re on an airplane or hiking, or need a little pick-me-up in the middle of the workday. They’re super flavorful and protein-rich—perfect!

They’re also really easy to make, so give these a try and let me know what you think in the comments below. I think you’re going to love them.
