Sometimes the simplest ingredients make the most irresistible snacks. Crispy chickpeas are a perfect example—small, crunchy bites that pack protein, fiber, and loads of flavor. They’re light enough for guilt-free snacking, yet versatile enough to sprinkle over salads, grain bowls, or soups for extra texture.
