If you have parsley or cilantro, mince and sprinkle a little over your plate of chickpeas with vegetables before serving.

If you have sweet paprika, add a pinch when seasoning with salt.

Chickpeas with vegetables are a fabulous way to make a nutritious one-dish meal. Try combining chickpeas with spinach, broccoli, or butternut squash.
