Chickpea and Mint Crostini

Raw has been on a detox diet. While there's a big list of things she's allowed to eat, there's also a long list of things she can't. I'm hoping this recipe is full of things she can eat and she'll make it for me to try!

This is another recipe from the January 2008 Real Simple.

Chickpea and Mint Crostini

1 15.5-ounce can chickpeas
2 scallions (white and light green parts), chopped
1/4 cup fresh mint
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/2 cup pomegranate seeds from 1 small pomegranate (optional)
1 16-ounce bag store-bought crostini

Drain, rinse, and coarsely chop chickpeas. In a medium bowl, combine them with scallions, mint, olive oil, salt, pepper, and pomegranate seeds. Serve with crostini.
