    1 can drained chickpeas
    Any seasoning - I use garlic salt and rosemary

    Put chickpeas in bowl w/ seasoning and toss to coat. Spread on greased cookie sheet and bake @ 450 degrees for 1 hour. A yummy, crunchy treat!



    I did this and ended up with a smoky oven full of burnt chickpeas :sad: I think you meant 350 degrees, not 450 :huh:

    tishtash - how much of the spice blend? like 1 tsp of each ingredient? please let me know i really want to try this!

    srry totally didnt see this question! I use the following

    1/4 tspn salt ( i have to watch my sodium so you could use more)
    1 tspn garlic powder
    1 tspn cumin
    1/4 tspn paprika
    1/8 tspn chili or cayene

    use mini muffin tins if baking in the oven as they come out less dry. If frying form into patties rather than balls.

    Someone else recently posted a falafel recipe similar but she puts cubes of feta into each one before cooking. I think this sounds like a great idea and plan on trying it out this week sometime.
