CHICKPEA SALAD
You only need a few ingredients to make this delicious chickpea salad.

INGREDIENTS:

Chickpeas: You can use homemade chickpeas or canned, these add a decent amount of protein.
Persian Cucumber: Persian Cucumbers have no seeds, they’re smaller, like a baby cucumber. If you cannot find these you can use 1/3 of an English cucumber.
Roma Tomatoes: Roma tomatoes are firm and easy to remove the seeds.
Red Pepper: Red peppers add sweetness, vitamin C, B6, and folate – feel free to add the whole thing or snack on the other half.
Red Onion: Red onions add another crunch, a little bitterness, and beautiful color.
Lemon Juice: The lemon juice adds acidity and brightness.
Herbs: Fresh Parsley is our herb of choice for this fresh salad, you could also add in cilantro if you’d like.
Seasoning: Salt completes this and brings all the flavors together. You can leave out if needed.

INSTRUCTIONS:

Combine: Chop up the vegetables into bite size pieces and mix into a bowl with the chickpeas. Chop the parsley and mix with the lemon juice and salt. Pour over the salad and toss to combine.
