Introduction

This recipe is for when you absolutely must have something crunchy, salty, and nutty to snack on-- and you don't want to break your eating plan. Amazingly low-cal, low-fat, and high in protein-- a good snack to have around for holiday and super bowl parties!

They are also delicious with other spice blends when you aren't feeling the curry: I have posted a spicy maple version as well!

Tips

This recipe doubles well, but it is easy to eat all of them!

Use a cookie sheet with raised edges or a large baking pan; garbanzos roll!


Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Drain and rinse the garbanzo beans well, then roll dry with paper towels (*important step-- if they are wet they either pop or don't get crunchy) being careful not to smush them.

Pour them onto a baking sheet and pour the Teaspoon of oil onto them and roll around with your hand to coat evenly.

Bake at 350 for 30-40 minutes until crunchy.

Dust with salt and curry powder and stir with a spoon to coat evenly.

Eat warm, or spread on newspaper to cool.
