  • 1 can chickpeas drained and patted dry
  • 1 Tablespoon avocado oil
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon cumin
  • 4 cups spinach chopped
  • 1 cup grape tomatoes sliced
  • 1/2 cup corn

  • 2-3 ounces Monterey jack cheese optional
  • 1/4 cup tahini
  • 1 medium lime juiced
  • 2 teaspoons honey
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Drain and pat chickpeas dry, then toss in avocado oil, chili powder, cumin, and sea salt. Spread on a parchment-lined baking sheet and roast for 20 minutes, turning halfway, until crispy.
