Best Marinated Greek Inspired Chickpea Salad Recipes
MARINATED CHICKPEAS
A lovely and refreshing salad or appetizer, better if it's allowed to sit and marinate a few days. You can also pop it in a blender for quick and tasty hummus.

MARINATED GREEK-INSPIRED CHICKPEA SALAD
This salad gets even better the longer it marinates in the refrigerator. While it's completely yummy right away, it tastes best after about 8 hours. I made up this salad after having early spring cravings for crunchy, crisp, refreshing summer food. The tangy vinaigrette and the sharp feta cheese balance perfectly with the hearty chickpeas and crunchy, sweet veggies and make for a really vibrant and satisfying salad. It is delicious alongside pickled baby beets or grilled chicken too. You can also put it in a wrap, or you can use it as a dip--sort of like a Greek salsa.

GREEK-STYLE CHICKPEA SALAD
This is a light, healthy, and refreshing salad! I found this gem in the Cook's Illustrated "The Best Light Recipe" book and I have made it many times since. Basically you are just chopping things up and throwing them together in a bowl so even the kids can help with this one. Very tasty, and excellent served over a bed of greens and herb garlic pita chips. I've tweaked it ever so slightly. This salad can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Season with additional lemon juice, salt, pepper, and oil as needed before serving. Very easy clean up, and your salad is ready in less than 20 minutes.
