Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 can (15 oz) chickpeas, rinsed and drained
  • 1 large ripe avocado, diced
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1 cucumber, diced
  • 1/2 red onion, finely chopped
  • 1/2 cup feta cheese, crumbled
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Begin by rinsing and draining the chickpeas thoroughly; set them aside to let them dry completely.
  2. Slice the avocado in half, carefully remove the pit, scoop out the creamy flesh, and cube it into bite-sized pieces.
  3. Halve the cherry tomatoes and gently add them to the mixing bowl with avocado, allowing the juices to mingle.
  4. Chop the cucumber into small cubes and mix them in for that satisfying crunch.
  5. Finely chop the red onion and sprinkle it into the bowl, adding a touch of spice and color.
  6. Incorporate the chickpeas and crumbled feta into the bowl, allowing them to mingle with the rest of the ingredients.
  7. In a separate bowl, whisk together olive oil and lemon juice, then season with salt and pepper to taste.
  8. Pour the dressing over the salad and gently toss to combine everything, ensuring each element is coated.
  9. Taste the salad and adjust seasoning if needed, inviting a touch of extra salt or pepper if desired.
  10. Serve the salad in beautiful bowls or on a large platter, garnished with fresh parsley for a pop of color.

Notes

For added protein, consider including grilled chicken or shrimp. To make it vegan, substitute with nutritional yeast instead of feta.
