Harissa Roasted Chickpeas

Bold, crunchy, and deeply satisfying, these harissa roasted chickpeas are a simple way to add big flavour and plant-based protein to your meals. Roasting chickpeas transforms them into a crispy, snackable topping that works just as well straight from the tray as it does sprinkled over salads, soups, or grain bowls. The smoky heat of harissa paired with savoury garlic creates a balanced spice profile that feels warming without being overpowering.

This recipe is perfect for busy days when you want something nourishing with minimal effort. Naturally gluten free and made with pantry staples, harissa roasted chickpeas are rich in fibre and protein, helping to keep you full and energised. They’re also ideal for meal prep, as they can be made ahead and used throughout the week to add crunch, flavour, and nutrition to everyday meals.
