2 tbsp taco seasoning 
1.5 - 2 cups chickpeas

1 head romaine lettuce, chopped 
5-oz cherry tomatoes, sliced 
2-oz guacamole

Caesar Dressing 
½ cup yogurt 
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice 
1 tbsp Dijon mustard 
1½ tsp Worcestershire sauce 
garlic powder

  1. Preheat oven to 375F.
  2. Make dressing by whisking all ingredients together until well combined, adding garlic powder to taste. 
  3. Chill until using.
  4. Combine soy sauce, lemon juice, taco seasoning and chickpeas, stir to coat.
  5. Place on parchment-lined baking sheet, and bake 20-25 minutes, until crispy but not hard.

  7. In a large mixing bowl, toss chickpeas with lettuce and cherry tomatoes. 
  8. Pour dressing over top, and toss to coat.
