Description
Sheet-Pan Chickpeas & Veggies is a one-pan meal that combines roasted chickpeas and an assortment of vegetables. The chickpeas are seasoned with smoky paprika and garlic powder, which enhances their flavor, while the vegetables—like bell peppers, zucchini, red onions, and broccoli—are tossed with olive oil and aromatic spices like oregano and cumin. Everything is roasted to perfection in the oven, creating a deliciously caramelized, healthy meal.
