Spiced chickpeas are a versatile, high-protein plant-based snack that can be enjoyed in a variety of ways. Chickpeas, also known as garbanzo beans, are a rich source of plant protein, providing around 7.3 grams per half-cup serving.
They also contain essential amino acids, fiber, and key nutrients like iron, magnesium, and folate.This Natlicious Food recipe enhances their natural nuttiness with a blend of Chinese five spice, smoked paprika, garlic granules, and oregano, creating a bold and aromatic flavor profile. Olive oil and maple syrup help coat the chickpeas evenly, adding a subtle sweetness that balances the warming spices.
Spiced chickpeas can be eaten on their own as a snack, used as a crunchy topping for salads, or added to grain bowls and wraps for extra texture and protein.
