  • ½ tsp garlic powder

  2. Rinse the chickpeas and dry with a tea towel to remove most of the moisture
  3. Mix the nutritional yeast, oil and seasonings together in a bowl.
  4. Spread the chickpeas evenly on the baking tray and coat with the mixture.
  5. Bake for 20 min and check to see if they are crispy enough for your liking. If not, bake for another 5-10 minutes. Do not over-bake as they will become rock hard!!

These little nuggets are packed with flavour and nutrition. Nutritional yeast (my pantry staple!) is the star of the show here creating a savoury, crunchy, nacho cheese-like flavour. Try them on top of my cashew carrot soup with kale chips , as a salad topper or snack.roasted chickpeasPhoto directions:chickpeasRinse the chickpeas wellseasoningsMix the nutritional yeast, onion powder, garlic powder and salt together.nacho cheese coatingAdd the oil and mix well together.IMG_7067Coat the chickpeas with the mixture IMG_7071Final product!!
