On Friday I stopped by a grocery store and took a pic of my lunch a chickpea salad. I received quite a few requests to recreate the recipe and here’s my attempt.
Ingredients:
- 1 cup of chickpeas
- 3 plum/roma tomatoes
- 1/2 green pepper
- handful of parsley
- 2 tbsp of olive oil
- 1 tbsp of balsamic vinegar
- pinch of salt
I would highly suggest using high grade olive oil, it makes a big difference in the taste. It’s amazing how until you add the balsamic vinegar it doesn’t taste like much. I am a fan of lady like bite size pieces and prefer to chop the ingredients finely instead of brutish chunks. This salad is incredibly filling and so tasty! I would also suggest serving it on a lettuce leaf if you want to get fancy for a party. Like a canapé, but without the little spoon.
Happy eating!
