Description

This easy chickpea salad is full of Mediterranean-inspired flavors that keep it light and refreshing while still being protein-packed and satisfying! It makes a big batch of salad out of chickpeas plus crunchy chopped vegetables and creamy crumbled feta.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 (15 ounce) cans chickpeas
  • 3 cups diced cucumbers (about 2 cucumbers)
  • 3 cups diced roma tomatoes (about 4 tomatoes)
  • ⅓ cup diced red onion
  • ⅓ cup chopped parsley
  • ⅓ cup crumbled feta

Dressing:

  • ⅓ cup olive oil
  • 3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 ½ teaspoons Italian seasoning (or oregano)
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt & pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Make the dressing: in a small bowl, mix together the dressing ingredients.
  2. Mix the salad: add all of the salad ingredients to a large bowl. Drizzle the dressing on top and toss to mix. Taste and season with additional seasoning or lemon juice (for tartness) depending on personal preference.
  3. Serve: for best flavor, chill the salad (covered) in the fridge for an hour before serving. Stir well before serving.

Notes

  • To help save time and get a small, even chop on your vegetables, try using a vegetable chopper.
