Honey Glazed Oregano Chick Peas

Here is a quick Sunday update for your snacking pleasure.  This recipe is a healthy snack made using pantry staples. A little bowl of goodness that will satisfy guests when served with drinks as an appetiser.

These honey coated chick peas will also add some jazz to a salad. They combine well with pumpkin, rocket and feta.

Cook in the oven until the chick peas start to caramelize. Stir twice during the cooking process to ensure that the chick peas are well coated and that honey does not cause them to burn in one spot.

The herbaceous charm of Oregano balances the sweetness of the honey and works well with the nutty flavor of the chick peas.

This recipe has joined my Baked Beetroot Chips on our Sunday snack menu. I hope that you add it to yours also.
