Ingredients

Servings

Crunchy Chickpeas

  • 1 oz can chickpeas drained, 425 g
  • ¼ cup tahini 60 g
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ tsp onion powder
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp smoked paprika

Tahini Dressing

  • ½ cup yogurt can sub dairy-free, 120 g, plain, Greek
  • ¼ cup tahini 60 g
  • 2 Tbsp lemon juice 30 mL
  • 2 tsp Dijon mustard 10 g
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • ½ tsp salt
  • water to thin

Salad

  • 1 bunch kale
  • 1 cup Parmesan Cheese about 50 g, freshly grated

Instructions

  1. Prep Chickpeas: Preheat oven to 400°F (204C). In a medium bowl, stir together 1 14-oz can chickpeas (drained), ¼ cup tahini, and ½ tsp each salt, onion powder, garlic powder, and smoked paprika.
  2. Bake Chickpeas: Spread chickpeas onto a parchment-lined baking sheet in a single layer, then bake for about 20 minutes, or until crispy.
  3. Tahini Dressing: In a medium bowl, stir together ½ cup plain Greek yogurt, ¼ cup tahini, 2 Tbsp lemon juice, 2 tsp dijon mustard, 1 clove garlic (minced), ½ tsp salt, and water to thin to your desired consistency.
  4. Make Salad: Wash then cut 1 bunch kale into bite-sized pieces. Add to a large bowl, and gently massage the kale for a few seconds to make it more tender. Add Crunchy Roasted Chickpeas, Tahini Dressing, and parmesan. Toss to combine and serve!

Notes

  • Storage: Kale stores better than any other salad base because it can hold up to the dressing! To store it, keep it in an air-tight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. The chickpeas will start to lose their crispiness, so it's great if you keep them separate.
