INGREDIENTS
1/2 cup roasted chickpeas (82g)
1/2 cup cooked quinoa (92g)
3/4 cup shelled edamame (117g)
1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese (28g)
1 cup chopped kale (67g)
1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil (4.5g)
Fresh lemon juice and zest (from 1 lemon)
2 tablespoons mixed fresh herbs (parsley, dill)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F. Rinse and pat dry your chickpeas if using canned; if using dry chickpeas, pre-cook them until tender then pat dry.
Toss the chickpeas with a pinch of salt, pepper, lemon zest, and a drizzle of olive oil. Spread them on a baking sheet and roast for 20-25 minutes until crispy.
While the chickpeas roast, prepare the quinoa according to package instructions and steam or massage the chopped kale with a pinch of salt to soften its texture.
In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, remaining olive oil, and the chopped fresh herbs to create the dressing.
Combine the cooked quinoa, steamed kale, and shelled edamame in a serving bowl. Once the chickpeas are roasted, add them along with the crumbled feta cheese.
Drizzle the lemon-herb dressing over the bowl and gently toss to combine. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if needed before serving.
