Mediterranean Chickpea Salad
Are you in the mood for a hearty salad? I found this mediterranean chickpea salad recipe in Barefoot Contessa’s latest cookbook, Foolproof and enjoyed it all last week! It’s healthy, delicious, colorful, and very fast to assemble.
Dice a couple of tomatoes, a cucumber, scallions, and add some chopped basil.
Drain and rinse a can of chickpeas.
For the dressing, you add lemon juice, garlic, salt, pepper and olive oil and whisk to combine.
Toss it all together.
Then add feta cheese.
For a hearty accompaniment, I baked two pita bread slices at 350 for about 10 minutes. A touch of olive oil and they’re good to go!
I couldn’t get enough of this salad. Hope you like it!
