Creating Slow Roasted Mushroom Pasta with Crisp Rosemary Chickpeas is an enjoyable process when you follow these simple steps:

1. Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 400°F (200°C) to prepare for roasting.

3. Roast the Chickpeas: Spread the chickpeas onto a baking sheet and roast for 25-30 minutes until crispy.
