Chickpea Salad


Chick Pea Salad



This is my new obsession. Seriously, once I make it I can't stop eating it! This salad is quick, easy and is made of ingredients that most people usually have on hand making it super convenient. Also, it's great for you!

What you need:
  • 1 8oz can chick peas (aka garbanzo beans)
  • 1/4 cup oil (flax, olive, etc)
  • as much diced red onion as you like (I used about 1/4 of a HUGE red onion)
  • as much tomato as you like (I used 1/2 of a HUGE tomato), chopped
  • 1 tbsp red wine vinegar
  • 1 tbsp dried parsley
  • 1 tsp lemon juice
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • salt and freshly ground pepper to taste


Basically, just drain and rinse your chick peas and pour into a medium size mixing bowl. Chop your onion and tomato, add to bowl and combine with all other ingredients. Chill and serve :)
