INGREDIENTS
0.9 cup Cooked Chickpeas (148g)
0.75 cup Shelled Edamame (110g)
1 oz Crumbled Feta Cheese (28g)
2 cups Mixed Salad Greens (85g)
0.5 cup Cherry Tomatoes (75g)
0.5 cup Sliced Cucumber (52g)
0.5 cup Chopped Red Bell Pepper (75g)
0.33 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil (5g)
1 tbsp Fresh Lemon Juice (15g)
2 tbsp Fresh Herbs
Salt & Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F. Rinse and drain the chickpeas, then pat them dry with a paper towel.
Toss the chickpeas with a pinch of salt, pepper, and a tiny drizzle of olive oil. Spread them on a baking sheet and roast for 20-25 minutes until they are crispy, stirring halfway through.
While the chickpeas are roasting, prepare the salad. In a large bowl, combine the mixed greens, cherry tomatoes, cucumber slices, and red bell pepper.
Add the shelled edamame and crumbled feta cheese to the bowl.
In a small bowl, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil, fresh lemon juice, finely chopped fresh herbs, and a pinch of salt and pepper to create the zesty dressing.
Once the chickpeas are crispy and cooled slightly, add them to the salad.
Drizzle the lemon herb dressing over the salad and gently toss to combine all the flavors.
Serve immediately and enjoy this vibrant, protein-rich salad.
