I made these last night and realized upon eating my last bite that I forgot to take a picture so I decided to run it back tonight so I could share!

Notes
Ensure the chickpeas are thoroughly dried before roasting to guarantee they get crispy rather than mushy. You can add a pinch of cayenne pepper if you prefer a spicier taco.
