Categories     Salad     Side Dish

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/2 cup finely diced red onion (about 1/2 small)
2 cans reduced-sodium chickpeas ((15-ounce cans), rinsed and drained)
1 1/2 cups chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley (about 1 bunch)
1 red bell pepper (chopped)
1 orange bell pepper ( or yellow bell pepper, chopped)
1 green bell pepper (chopped)
1/2 large seedless cucumber (chopped (about 2 cups))
1/2 cup crumbled feta (about 4 ounces)
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
2 cloves garlic (minced)
1 1/2 teaspoons dried oregano
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Steps:

  • Place the onions in a bowl of cool water and let them soak while you prepare the other ingredients (this removes the harsher bite from the onions, while still giving great flavor).
  • Place the chickpeas, parsley, bell peppers, cucumber, and feta in a large serving bowl.
  • In a small mixing bowl or large measuring cup, stir together the dressing ingredients: olive oil, red wine vinegar, garlic, oregano, salt and pepper. Drain the red onions and add them to the chickpea mixture, then pour the dressing over the top. Toss to combine. If time allows, let marinate in the refrigerator for 30 minutes, or enjoy immediately.

ROASTED CHICKPEAS AND CUCUMBER SALAD



Roasted Chickpeas and Cucumber Salad image

If you're dieting and looking for filling, high-fiber, low-fat fat foods, then the simple chickpea is a dream food come true. These beans have been shown to help dieters stay on track and avoid unhealthy snacks. Inspired by this news, I created a simple side dish featuring roasted chickpeas, because I think they taste so much better that way. This salad makes a perfect side dish or a light lunch.
