Ingredients
  

  • 1 can 15 oz chickpeas, rinsed and drained
  • 1 cup cucumber diced
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes halved
  • 1/2 bell pepper diced (red, yellow, or green)
  • 1/4 red onion finely chopped
  • 1/2 cup feta cheese crumbled
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley or dill for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Prep the Ingredients: Start by rinsing and draining the chickpeas. Dice the cucumber, halve the cherry tomatoes, chop the bell pepper, and finely chop the red onion.
  • Mix the Salad Base: In a large bowl, combine the chickpeas, cucumber, cherry tomatoes, bell pepper, and red onion.
  • Add the Feta: Crumble the feta cheese on top of the veggie mixture; this will add that creamy tang that we all love.
  • Prepare the Dressing: In a small separate bowl, whisk together the olive oil, red wine vinegar, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Adjust the seasoning as needed to suit your taste preferences.
  • Combine and Toss: Pour the dressing over the salad ingredients and toss gently to combine everything evenly.
  • Garnish and Serve: If desired, sprinkle with fresh parsley or dill for an extra pop of freshness. Serve immediately or let it chill in the fridge for about 30 minutes to enhance those flavors.
