Organic Snack Ideas

My daughter needs snacks for lunch this year. She’s going to be heading off to school and I want her to be well nourished while away from home. Today I roasted some chick peas in the oven. She loved them when they were all finished. I packed them into a small container and added a few carob chips and hazelnuts so she would have variety to choose from.

Roasted Chickpeas

2 cans Organic Garbanzo beans, drained and rinsed
1 Tb. Olive oil
1 Tb. Sea Salt

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Drain the cans of chickpeas or the water from fresh ones and toss them in the olive oil and sea salt. Place a sheet of parchment paper on a baking pan for even cooking. Spread the chick peas out in one layer and cook for about 45 minutes. There is no need to turn the chick peas. Store in a glass jar.
