Roasted Garbonzo Beans


Why Eat Garbanzo Beans?
Garbanzo beans are full of nutrients, vitamins and minerals.  Garbanzo beans, also known as chickpeas, are a major part of a number of diets around the world, including Mediterranean, Asian and Middle East diets. The garbanzo bean is high in fiber, potassium and folate. But its high protein and iron content also make it a suitable substitution for meat. Because of its nutritional profile, the garbanzo bean offers a number of health benefits and makes a good addition to anyone's diet.
Besides being full of nutrients, vitamins and minerals. Garbanzo beans also help with:
·      Hunger Control
Including garbanzo beans in your diet can help you control hunger. As a food that can help control hunger and decrease overall consumption, garbanzo beans may help you manage your weight.

Directions: I used garbanzo beans that were about .65 cents for a can. I drained them and put them in a bowl with worcestershire sauce, Lawrey seasoning and Mr. Dash seasoning.  I  then placed them on wax paper and baked them in the oven for about 30. Once they were done cooking I threw them in a salad for extra flavor and healthiness.
