Crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, this garlicky, salty, chili-spiced snack will keep hunger pangs at bay any time of the day. These four-ingredient chickpeas don't get much easier than this, and roasting them in the oven ensures the perfect consistency. Mix up the toppings with whatever you have on hand, such as onion powder for the garlic powder, or curry powder for the chili powder, to make this recipe even more versatile and fun. Roast up a big batch and store in a covered mason jar so it’s right at hand to use whenever you need it.
