Start any snack time with these fun Ranch Roasted Chickpeas. It’s a recipe that the whole family will enjoy.
It’s hard to believe that in a little over a week, we will be sitting down with our family members carving into a Thanksgiving turkey. There will be endless amounts of food, beverages and a ton of laughter to go around the table. After that we may be putting on our lounge pants and curling up with a blanket to watch some football. You may have other plans but I’m thinking that is exactly what I’ll be doing this next week.
Before I get ready for the BIG MEAL I’ll be snacking on these healthy Ranch Roasted Chickpeas. They’ve been a favorite of mine for years and I finally decided to remake them again for the site. The preparation time takes only about 2 minutes and then you let the oven finish it off. You end up with a crunchy little chickpea with a hint of ranch seasoning.
I made them this past week and let the kids try them for an afternoon snack. Honestly, I wasn’t sure how they would take to them. All three silver containers were emptied out and they were requesting more. That’s one snack that I don’t have a problem with them asking for more. These would be great for road trips or any gatherings that you may have at your house. I can’t wait to whip up a couple more batches with some fall spices.
Now, it’s off to eat some of these Ranch Roasted Chickpeas before the kids realize I made another batch.
