    Cumin, salt, paprika, garlic powder, black and/or cayenne pepper, olive oil. Mix. Stir in chickpeas to coat, arrange in an even layer on parchment paper, bake in oven for about 15 minutes, and you'll have the tastiest, crunchy snack of your life. (Wish I could remember measurements... They're around here somewhere).

    Honestly if you roast a red pepper and throw it into the food processor with all your other ingredients.......you are going to say......this is even better than the best hummus ever :-)

    Do you use canned chick peas for the crunchy snack mix?
