Curried Chickpeas

Chickpeas roasted in the oven become a tasty, healthy snack in this easy recipe. If making a double batch, be sure to use two rimmed baking sheets so the chickpeas have enough room to crisp up.

Ingredients

• 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
• 1 tablespoon curry powder
• ¼ teaspoon salt
• 1 15-ounce can chickpeas, rinsed

Directions

1. Position rack in upper third of oven; preheat to 400°F.
