Hawaiian BBQ Roasted Chickpeas ~ Chickpeas soaked in pineapple juice, rolled in Hawaiian BBQ Spices and roasted; the perfect sweet-spiced, no guilt snack.
A recipe bucket-list item crossed off!
You have no idea how awesome that feels…or maybe you do. I have been seeing roasted chickpeas for eons all over the inter-webs. I have wanted to make them but for one reason or another, simply haven’t gotten around to it.
Finally.
Hawaiian BBQ Roasted Chickpeas
Now that Elizabeth and I are home from our epically long visit to family in California, we’re trying to settle into the routine of summer. If I am to be perfectly honest, we’re failing miserably at it. But this is new thing for both of us.
Trying to adjust to her being home all the time (despite having rotating in-home teenage babysitters coming in daily), me working more than full-time hours (in fairness, I do run 3 companies-one to be formally announced next week!) is a rough thing to manage.
Cooking has been difficult, well cooking the way I love to cook anyway, and we’ve been living on easy meals as I like to call them. A simple-to-make protein, a couple of sides, and call it a meal. Outside cooking quick meals, I need to have some healthy snacks on hand.
This Hawaiian BBQ Roasted Chickpeas post is sponsored by Bush’s Beans in conjunction with The Women Bloggers, however, all thoughts and opinions, glowing, gushing, or otherwise are 100% my own.
It’s easy to grab a bag of chips or package of cookies, but if I’m going to maintain some healthiness about me, I can’t eat those as much as I might like. Now was the time to finally make a batch or 5 of these delicious Hawaiian BBQ Roasted Chickpeas.
Once we got home, the pantry and fridge needed to be restocked….badly. I ran to Walmart to get all those must-have items and, of course, that meant picking up canned beans. They are a must in my house. I grabbed several cans and varieties of Bush’s Beans. But I grabbed SEVERAL cans of Bush’s Beans garbanzos or chickpeas to make my new favorite Hawaiian BBQ Roasted Chickpeas.
They are perfect as a crunchy side dish to any meal or as a snack while I am typing away on my computer (kinda like now.) The recipe below is for one can, but I promise, you’re going to want to make more than one can’s worth at a time. It’s simply too easy to gobble them all up yourself in a sitting.

July 22, 2017 at 6:25 pmThese look delicious, Michelle. And yes, I could spend all day eating tortilla chips, but well, this might be a better alternative! This is going right into the recipe file.

July 24, 2017 at 2:56 amDefinitely need to try to pineapple soak! Roasted chickpeas are a go-to around here, but that is a new idea that I’m really loving. I will report back after I have tried this version.

August 1, 2017 at 11:43 amMy kiddos love these ranch chickpeas I found at Trader Joes. I’m going to have to use this as a jumping-off point to try making my own!

August 4, 2017 at 7:02 amThe problem about snacks like this for me is that I can only start eating and then never stop until it’s over haha
