Colorful chickpea salad – Easy chickpea salad recipe
Today I have something very special for you: My colorful chickpea salad! Sounds delicious, right? But it’s not only delicious it also looks fabulous.
After my previous fruity lamb’s lettuce was so well-received by all of you, I thought, there must be another delicious salad recipe. That’s why, there is now my super easy chickpea salad recipe.
This salad packs a punch! Chickpeas might be small and do not look very special, but they score with plenty of protein and also contain a lot of fiber and iron. Which is why, this chickpea salad not only looks healthy, it actually is.
Iron, for example, is important for oxygen transport in the blood and together with the vitamin C from the lemon juice, the vegetable iron can be absorbed particularly well. One of the reasons why I use a classic lemon dressing in this salad.
Personally, I love to serve this salad at the summer barbecue as a delicious side dish. Thanks to the fruity dressing and the crunchy ingredients, this salad is a super healthy barbecue side dish.
But enough with the health benefits of the salad let’s start with the recipe!
