The challenge with this blog is not necessarily the cooking part, I think I've got that down, it's the cooking new foods part. I love trying new recipes and cooking methods, it's just that when I'm busy and crunched for time, I tend to fall back to my old favorites which are quick to not only think up and shop for, but to prepare as well since I don't have to research and refer to other sources. But I do have a long list of new items I want to prepare and try, so I will do my best to cycle through them on a more regular basis. :-)
I was baking a double-batch of kale chips tonight when my mind started to wander. Hmmm, I wonder what else I can roast up to a crisp? When I opened up my pantry, I saw a lonely can of garbanzo beans (AKA chickpeas) amidst cans of black, kidney and great northern beans. So over to the computer I went to search for a recipe. Ta-Dah! Roasted Garbanzo Beans! So easy and so yummy!
Roasted Garbanzo Beans
Adapted from this recipe.
Ingredients:
- 1 (15 oz.) can of garbanzo beans, rinsed and drained
- PAM
- Tastefully Simple Seasoned Salt
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
- Dry the garbanzo beans with a paper towel and place them onto a baking sheet in a single layer.
- Roast in the preheated oven for 40 - 50 minutes or until golden brown and crunchy, tossing the beans with a wooden spoon every 15 minutes or so to prevent sticking.
- When beans are nice and crunchy, remove from oven. Spray the roasted beans very lightly with PAM and sprinkle with seasoned salt. Toss and enjoy!
