I love chicks (snick) Okay, okay. let me rephrase that. I love chickpeas. Like, a lot. get used to seeing a lot of beans in this blog (welcome to fork and beans!) and especially chickpeas. so i wanted to come up with a new way to cook these bad boys and here is quite the creation. depending on how many people you are cooking for this recipe will be based off of 1 can of beans. to get an idea, these were so good that i each literally ate almost an entire can! did i just admit that??? yes, i did! it was THAT good. feel free to double…or triple…or quadruple this recipe to fit your individual needs.
Roasted Garlicky Chickpeas Recipe

- Slop it on to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
