Ingredients

  • 1 large head Romaine lettuce (about 6 cups chopped)
  • 1 English/hothouse cucumber
  • 2 small/medium carrots (or 1 large)
  • 5 oz. grape/cherry tomatoes
  • 1/3 cup red onion (or green onion)
  • 1 batch Oil-Free Hummus
  • 1 or 2 batches* Smoky Roasted Chickpeas
  • balsamic vinegar for drizzling (or Maple Balsamic Dressing)

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Roast chickpeas: First, make the Smoky Roasted Chickpeas.
  2. Make hummus: While the chickpeas are roasting, make the hummus. (Or do this ahead of time and store in fridge until ready.)
  3. Prepare the salad: Chop the romaine lettuce, dice cucumber, shred carrot, halve/quarter tomatoes, and thinly slice the onion. Place in a large bowl and lightly toss to combine.
  4. Assemble salad: Place desired amount of salad in a serving bowl and top with roasted chickpeas, a dollop of hummus, and drizzle of balsamic vinegar (or other dressing of choice).

Notes

  • *Roasted chickpeas: Often I'll make a double batch (using two 15-ounce cans) because I enjoy lots of crispy chickpea goodness in my salad. But feel free to stick to one batch if desired.
  • Other possible additions: Sprouts, avocado, beets, bell pepper, red cabbage, Kalamata olives, nuts, seeds, vegan feta cheese, etc.
