Method:

  1. To a large mixing bowl add the chickpeas, oil, spices, and salt. Mix well to ensure the chickpeas are thoroughly coated.
  2. Spread chickpeas onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake in the oven  at 200°C for 15 mins.. After 15 mins, give the chickpeas a good mix and bake for a further 15 mins, or until browned.
  3. Meanwhile, make the caesar dressing by whisking together all ingredients until they form a creamy but slightly runny sauce. Set aside.
  4. To a large serving bowl, add the chopped kale and mix in the caesar dressing, ensuring every bit of kale is thoroughly coated in sauce. Top with the crispy chickpeas, parmesan shavings and serve!
