Kale Mediterranean Chickpea Salad

By Meal Prep Chef

Put your knife skills to the test! This healthy and light salad is a good accompaniment to heavier dishes. Feel free to sub out the cucumber if making during the winter months. Highly modifiable, this salad works with so many dishes and is a refreshing alternative to the common green salad. Not to mention, full of nutrients!

Prep Time: 15 minutes
Yields: 4-6 servings

Ingredients:

  • ½ Cucumber, cut into thin half moons
  • 5 Cherry Tomatoes, sliced in half
  • ¼ Red Onion, finely diced
  • 1 Handful of Raw Almonds, chopped
  • ½ Bunch of Kale, roughly chopped
  • 1 tbsp Parsley, finely chopped
  • 1 tbsp Dill, finely chopped
  • ¼ can Chickpeas, drained & rinsed
  • 1 Lemon
  • Salt & Pepper

Directions:

  1. Prepare all ingredients by using a very sharp knife. To be able to finely and evenly prep, a sharp knife is required. A dull knife will bruise the vegetables and cause them to brown more quickly.
  2. Using the kale as a base, top with all salad toppings.
  3. Squeeze fresh Lemon Juice over the salad and season with Salt & Pepper.
