Any Recipes for Roasted Chickpeas (Garbanzo)????
So if you have any recipes, please share them. I have five cans of garbanzo beans waiting to be roasted up for snacking purposes and would like to try out a few different recipes.

Then season them however you want. I use lots of salt and this creole seasoning, but I've also done garlic salt and parmesan, and even cinnamon and splenda.

So if we roast chickpeas till they are basically a crunchy lil nugget, do they really have the same calorie count as if say we just warmed them and ate them like that?
I guess like toast has less calories than bread...cause the heating process burns away calories. I know I know I'm overthinking it, but I made these on the weekend, the hot batch were yummy but I didn't cook them long enough, thanks Kelley for the upgrade on the amount of time, I liked the super crisp ones better.
But a 1/2 cup of these is like 143 calories and 27 of carbs... not something I believe I can have very often if this is the case :) still way better than chips!
Anyways that is my odd question, if they are roasted until they are just crisp little shells, would they stil have as high of carb and calorie count.

When we were doing science experiments on calories, essentially calories have so much 'burn' power, or fuel. when we burn away some of that fuel (by toasting only, cooking in juices and water does not burn away the calories) you are consuming some of the available calories before eating.
Example, A piece of bread. You toast it, it burns away some of the carbohydrates, water and other nutrients on the outside, but the inside may still be soft. If you continue to toast it, the weight of the bread dramatically chances as well as the available calories to eat. If you continued to toast it, it would turn to ash and have no more calories
So my theory is that with chickpeas, if you toast them until there is no 'soft' on the inside, essentially you are burning off calories in that 'soft stuff'
the caloric different may be insignificant too...I think I over think stuff.
