The first time I made it, I followed the recipe on the package exactly.

In the last few minutes of baking, you add the crunchy croutons crumbs and the Parmesan cheese.

When its done, you drizzle on the remaining dressing just before serving.

As delicious as that is, I made a few improvements to the process.

I dont want to lose any croutons or cheese!

The chickpeas get coated in dressing and toast up nicely in the oven.
