Salt and Vinegar Roasted Chickpeas

I remember back in the days when I was a vegetarian, I would eat chickpeas all the time. I would eat chickpea salad wraps for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Going out to the store, I would buy a huge, overloaded bag of chickpeas that could feed an army and then some. But for some reason, after I started eating meat, I stopped my whole chickpea craze.

Well people, it's coming back!

I have been seeing recipe after recipe for roasted chickpeas that made me drool. I needed to make some of my own! That is when I saw a recipe for Salt and Vinegar Roasted Chickpeas that I thought: This is the one.

And it really was the one.  This batch barely lasted 15 minutes in my house, it was so good. I needed to swat people away with my spatula so that I can take these pictures.

So if you're craving some salt and vinegar chips (like I do 89% of the day) but want something healthier, here's your solution!

This past week, I have made this recipe 4 times, and every time John has finished it in under 30 minutes.

I have found a new go-to snack idea. And it is so much healthier than my regular bag of salt and vinegar potato chips!

Salt and Vinegar Roasted Chickpeas Ingredients

These salt and vinegar chickpeas are so easy to make. All you need is:

• chick peas (either canned chickpeas or cooked)
• white vinegar
• dash of sea salt (coarse salt is best)
• extra virgin olive oil

Tips

Storage: Once the roasted chickpea tray is cooled, place chickpeas in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.

Keep a careful eye on the chickpeas. ​The chickpeas burn easily in the oven. Make sure you check them every 5-10 minutes to make sure they aren't burning.

Line the baking sheet. ​The chickpeas will stick to the pan. To avoid this, line your baking pan with either aluminum foil or parchment paper.
