INGREDIENTS
4 oz Lean Ground Beef
1/2 cup Chickpeas
1 Egg, hard-boiled
2 cups Mixed Salad Greens
1/2 cup sliced Cucumber
1/2 cup Cherry Tomatoes
1/4 cup chopped Red Onion
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
PREPARATION
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the lean ground beef. Cook until browned and fully cooked, breaking it into small pieces. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
While the beef cooks, rinse the chickpeas under cool water to remove excess sodium.
Prepare your vegetables by chopping the mixed salad greens, slicing the cucumber, halving the cherry tomatoes, and finely chopping the red onion.
Hard-boil the egg if not pre-cooked. Once cooled, peel and chop the egg coarsely.
In a small bowl, combine the olive oil with freshly squeezed lemon juice, a teaspoon of Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper. Whisk until the dressing is emulsified.
In a large bowl, toss together the salad greens, cucumber, tomatoes, and red onion. Add in the cooked ground beef, chickpeas, and chopped egg.
Drizzle the tangy dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine all the flavors.
Serve immediately and enjoy this balanced, protein-packed salad.
