Tahini Turmeric Roasted Chickpeas
We love our chickpeas over here, but I mean, who doesn’t? They make such a great addition to so many dishes, since they’re full of protein and can add some extra texture. Even better: Roasted chickpeas! We tried tossing them in our Tahini Turmeric dressing before roasting in the oven and man-o-man, they turned out to be delicious. It also gave them a beautiful bright yellow colour on top of the nutty flavour from the tahini. These make a perfect healthy topper for lots of dishes and they’re irresistibly crunchy, too! You can try these roasted chickpeas on your salads, bowls, or by the handful. Read on for the quick and easy recipe!
