EASY BAKED CHICKPEAS
Chickpeas are a healthy product, and as such are a great snack when made this way.
They are also good as a snack in between meals, and are full of nutrients. They are a far better snack than say, potato chips, and they are just as moreish.
I like to buy my chickpeas fresh, however if you want to save time, you could use rinsed tinned ones.
If you do use the fresh ones, make sure you soak them overnight in cold water, then drain them and put in a saucepan with water to cover, then bring to the boil over a high heat and cook for about 10 minutes or until tender.
