Fresh Herb-Citrus Chickpea Feta Salad
Enjoy a vibrant salad featuring protein-packed chickpeas and savory tofu, accented by crumbled feta and a luscious citrus-herb dressing. Crisp cucumber, sweet red bell pepper, and a hint of red onion add crunch, while fresh parsley and mint brighten each bite.
INGREDIENTS
1.25 cups Chickpeas (cooked)
3.5 ounces Extra Firm Tofu
1 ounce Feta Cheese
0.5 cup sliced Cucumber
0.5 cup diced Red Bell Pepper
0.25 cup thinly sliced Red Onion
2 tbsp Fresh Parsley
2 tbsp Fresh Mint
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
1 tsp Olive Oil
PREPARATION
Rinse and drain the chickpeas if using canned. Place them in a large mixing bowl.
Press the extra firm tofu gently to remove excess moisture, then cut into small cubes.
In a non-stick skillet over medium heat, lightly sauté the tofu cubes for 3-4 minutes until they begin to turn golden, then let them cool slightly.
Add the tofu, crumbled feta, sliced cucumber, diced red bell pepper, and thinly sliced red onion into the bowl with chickpeas.
Sprinkle the freshly chopped parsley and mint over the salad.
In a small bowl, whisk together lemon juice and olive oil to create a light citrus dressing.
Pour the dressing over the salad and gently toss all ingredients until evenly combined.
Season with salt and pepper to taste and serve immediately, or refrigerate for a chilled salad experience.
