Summer Chickpea Salad
WHO DOESN’T LOVE AN EASY SALAD?
Something about summer makes me crave simple, light, and easy dishes!
This chickpea salad is a great recipe to add to your rotation and a great spin-off of your typical egg, chicken, or tuna salad. Not only is this recipe delicious and refreshing, but it is packed with plant-based protein, veggies, seasonings, and flavor!
This chickpea salad is allergen- friendly being gluten, dairy, soy, and nut-free plus vegan. Feel free to add your own adjustments too if there’s a way that it will work for you even better – I think avocado would be a nice addition!
Enjoy!
