CRISPY BUFFALO CHICKPEAS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Once the chickpeas have been thoroughly rinsed, spread them on a clean dish towel and pat them as dry as possible. Remove any skins that have loosened. If desired, remove the skins from all the chickpeas (this will result in a slightly crispier chickpea, but it is not necessary). Transfer the chickpeas to a medium bowl and toss with the baking soda, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper.
• Melt the butter in a small skillet over medium heat. Add the celery salt, garlic powder and onion powder and cook, stirring, until the spices are lightly toasted and fragrant, about 1 minute. Add 1/4 cup of the hot sauce and stir to combine. Pour over the chickpeas and fold gently to coat well.
• Scatter the chickpeas on a rimmed baking sheet in a single layer. Roast until the chickpeas are a deep golden brown and very crispy, tossing them and rotating the sheet halfway through, 55 to 60 minutes. Remove from the oven and drizzle with 2 tablespoons of the hot sauce. Shake the pan back and forth so that the chickpeas roll and are well coated in the sauce. Continue to bake until the sauce has dried out, about 5 minutes more.
• Drizzle the remaining 2 tablespoons hot sauce over the top and toss to coat. Let sit on the baking sheet until cooled completely, about 30 minutes. Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days at room temperature.

BUFFALO CHICKPEA SALAD SANDWICH

Steps:

• In a bowl, add the chickpeas and mash until most of the chickpeas are mashed but there's still some texture.
• Add in the bell pepper, celery, and onion and mix well.
• In a bowl, mix the sauce ingredients until well combined.
• Then add sauce to the chickpea mixture along with salt and garlic powder and toss well. Taste and adjust salt and heat. If you like more heat, you can add more hot sauce or you can add 1/4 teaspoon of cayenne.
• To make the slaw, add the slaw ingredients to a bowl and toss well. Taste and adjust by adding more ranch if needed.
• Assemble by placing some greens like baby spinach or some peppery greens on one bread slice.
• Then add a good helping of the chickpea mash then top it with the slaw and add another bread slice.

ROASTED BUFFALO CHICKPEAS

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Pour the chickpeas onto a rimmed baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil. Season with salt, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, chili powder and cumin and toss well to combine and evenly coat.
• Roast the chickpeas for 25 to 30 minutes, or until crisp and slightly firm, stirring about halfway through. If you'd like your chickpeas to be a little crunchier, add another 10 minutes onto the cooking time.
• In a small bowl, combine the cayenne pepper hot sauce and melted butter, if using, and toss with the roasted chickpeas.

BUFFALO CHICKPEA SLIDERS RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the chickpeas, buffalo sauce, vegan mayonnaise, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper and mash well with a fork or potato masher until the mixture has a chunky consistency.
• To make the ranch dressing, combine vegan mayonnaise, almond milk, apple cider vinegar, lemon juice, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, pepper, parsley, and dill to a liquid measuring cup and whisk until smooth.
• Use a large bread knife to cut the whole sheet of slider buns in half crosswise. Remove the top and set aside. Spread the buffalo chickpea mixture on the bottom half of the slider buns, then top with lettuce, tomato, and red onion. Drizzle the ranch dressing over the top.
• Place the top half of the slider buns back on top. Then slice between the buns to make 12 sliders.
• Enjoy!
