Hey there pumpkin people! You didn't think I was done with the pumpkin recipes just yet, did you? Well I'm not! And I just have to share these since I've been snacking on them all month and feel bad that they just kept getting pushed back on the posting schedule. I didn't feel too bad though since I had this and these to share πŸ˜‰ These chickpeas still deserved their day to shine though!

These also seemed like a great recipes to share so soon after Halloween. You may find yourself snacking on candy (which I say go for!), but you might want a healthier snack to balance it all out. Some sweet crunchy chickpea protein seemed like a good swap. These are sugar-free so you won't have to worry about that. Leave these in a big bowl when you have upcoming holiday parties too! They won't spoil any appetites, but will totally satisfy the noshing requirement!

Now, really, I'm not a big snacker. You won't find me grazing the kitchen and cupboards. I like big meals, not bits or this and that. My mom is a big snacker, eating this and that, so is my brother. I fall a bit short of that trait. However, I do appreciate a good crunchy snack. I absolutely love my popcorn and gluten-free pretzels. I just like my snacky-snacks to be a part of a bigger meal, like lunch! What is a sandwich without a crunchy side? Nothing, that's what!

Since I eat my lunch on Tuesdays half during a lecture, then the other half shoveled down my throat before a 3 hour lab, I usually nosh on the crunchiness during lecture. I've been using these chickpeas to fuel my academic brain power! Protein powder for sure; in all it's plant-based glory! Hopefully I'm not disturbing anyone with my crunching. These are super crunchy peas!

Which reminds me of something a bit off topic. Why is it, when you're taking a test, and the room is silent, your stomach makes the loudest noises! Β never does that normally when there is sound and talking, but when all is silent, it goes crazy! I know it's louder to the individual (yourself), than it is to everyone on the outside, but they can still hear it! I know I'm not the only one this happens too πŸ˜› It's so...embarrassing? I think it's pretty distracting even to myself! Why must the tummy talk while I'm trying to describe the functions of NADH and FADH+ on electron transport????

Gotta love the seasonal crunch! Roasted chickpeas are pretty addicting, so if you want more recipes, check out my smoked paprika & cinnamon ones or my cinnamon "sugar" ones as well! When I first made these chickpeas, I had a ton to cook, so I made another flavor as well. You'll have to wait a bit longer for those, but you know I never let you down...eventually! Now go get your healthy snacking on! Although I'd suggest you throw in some candy and make a "trail mix" if you will πŸ˜‰ At least do some chocolate chips!

So tell me:

+ Are you a snacker?

+ Have you experienced the stomach growling/noise-making/craziness during silent moments?

    I just started roasting garbanzos. Don't know why it took me so long. Your version sounds amazing. The one thing that confuses me is the roasting time and temp. Every recipe I look at has it different. I roasted my at 375 and in 25 minutes they were done. Everyone's oven is different. Makes putting a recipe together a bit difficult! I do love your flavors in this one! πŸ™‚

    It makes perfect sense you're fuelling your brain with chickpeas because somebody once aptly described them as little brains ;). Saying this around Halloween would have been even more fitting. Either way, I'm always up for chickpeas.
