Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 1 can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1 cucumber, diced
  • 1/4 red onion, finely chopped
  • 1/2 cup feta cheese, crumbled

Dressing

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 lemon, juiced
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions

Preparation

  • In a large bowl, combine the chickpeas, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, red onion, and feta cheese.
  • In a separate small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper.
  • Pour the dressing over the salad and gently toss everything to combine.
  • Serve immediately or chill in the refrigerator for 15 minutes to enhance the flavors. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving, if desired.

Notes

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 2-3 days. For best flavor, wait to add the dressing until just before serving to maintain the crunchiness of the vegetables.
