Curried Garbanzo Bean Poppers Recipe

These roasted treats can be a snack on their own or a protein-boosting addition to salads.

Ingredients

1 15.5-ounce can garbanzo beans or chickpeas, drained and rinsed
1 teaspoon curry powder
2 teaspoons olive oil
1 teaspoon chopped cilantro

Directions

Before you begin: Wash your hands.

1. Preheat oven to 425°F (218°C).
2. On a foil-lined sheet tray, mix together the garbanzo beans, curry powder and olive oil. Spread beans out in a single-layer to ensure each bean has enough space to get crispy.
3. Bake for 25 minutes.
4. Remove beans from oven and gently toss in the cilantro before serving warm.
