Notes

Storage: Store any leftovers in an airtight container for up to 5 days in the fridge. The chickpeas and veggies will lose their crispness after an hour though. You can reheat in the oven at 350°F for 5 minutes for best texture.
Freezing Instructions: While you can freeze chickpeas, it's not recommended for this oven roasted dish because it will lose its crispness and you will have to reheat in the oven anyways.
