    For a sandwiche filling: drain & rinse one can of chickpeas. Run through a food processer until as smooth as desired. (I perfer some chunks) Mix in one stalk of celery, diced; one tablespoon of pickle relish, two tablespoons of light mayo and two teaspoons of mustard.

    Toss them in olive oil and roast them in the oven for about 45 minutes. When they are crispy toss them with sea salt and garam masala or tandoori masala if you like spice.....
