    Can substitute canned chickpeas for cooked chickpeas.

    I made this again, and thought the chickpeas turned out just right. Maybe last time I overbaked them? This time, I removed them from the oven when they were only just crispy and slightly split open, after about 19 minutes baking. I also added a tablespoon or so of smashed garlic gently sautéed in olive oil to the seasoning mix, again leaving out the hot paprika and rosemary. They were exceptionally flavorful without being too dry at all. Since I find that garlic tends to burn when it is sautéed or roasted along with the chickpeas, this seems a much better way to do it.

    I usually just roast chickpeas on the stove, so was curious as to how this oven method would differ. Perhaps Swanson's cooking times were a little long for my oven, as the result was chickpeas that were exceptionally dry. The flavor combination is very good, although I left out the rosemary and hot paprika, but I felt like maybe the chickpeas should have been tossed in the spiced oil earlier in order to soak it up better.

    I used half canned chickpeas and half dried chickpeas. The flavor was great, a little smoky and a little spicy. It was my first time making roasted chickpeas so I was a little surprised by the texture. I expected them to be crunchy, but they were soft after the initial bite. This may be an error on my part, not sure. Also, Heidi suggests keeping these on hand to add to other dishes, but by the next day mine were a very unappetizing texture.
