This is the ultimate snack. Both Logan and Kaia devour this every time I serve it. Chickpeas are a good source of iron, fibre, vitamin c & b-6 and protein.

Chickpeas are so versatile, they can be added to anything. When roasted, they take on the flavour of your seasonings. The amount of flavour combinations is limitless, but here are our Top 5 (it was tough picking just 5, but I didn’t want to overwhelm you guys).
