Ingredients
- 1 (15 oz) can chickpeas, rinsed and drained well
- 2 cups chopped English cucumber (about 2/3 of 1 medium)
- 1 1/4 cups chopped roma tomatoes (about 2)
- 1/4 cup chopped red onion
- 3 Tbsp chopped fresh parsley
- 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 2 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
- 1 1/2 tsp minced garlic
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
- Add chickpeas, cucumber, tomatoes, red onion and parsley to a bowl.
- Measure out olive oil into a liquid measuring cup, pour in lemon juice, garlic, Italian seasoning and season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Pour dressing over mixture in bowl. Toss to evenly coat, season with more salt to taste if needed. Salad will taste good for a few days but texturally it's best eaten within a few hours.
Notes
- You could also add one of these options:
- Garden cucumbers can be substituted just peel first.
- Grape tomatoes will work in place of Roma tomatoes (use 1.5 cups).
- Red wine or white wine vinegar can be substituted for lemon juice.
- 1/3 cup feta
- 1 (5 oz) can tuna in water, well drained
- 1 avocado, diced
- 3/4 cup cooked quinoa
- 1/4 cup sliced Kalamata or black olives
