Chickpea Salad Recipe

A fresh, vibrant Mediterranean-inspired salad with cucumbers, tomatoes, chickpeas, and fresh mint! Perfect for meal prep, or as a versatile spring and summer side dish!

Mediterranean-Inspired Cucumber Chickpea Salad

(15 oz.) can chickpeas, drained and rinsed

English

cherry or grape tomatoes, quartered

mint ((or sub up to half with parsley))

olive oil

tsp balsamic vinegar ((for sweetness))

tsp sea salt ((plus more to taste))

tsp black pepper

vegan feta crumbles

Place all ingredients (except vegan feta) in a medium-sized bowl and toss well to combine. Add the vegan feta (optional) and toss again. Taste and adjust, adding more lemon juice for brightness, olive oil for richness, or vegan feta for saltiness.

Serve chilled or at room temperature. We love pairing this salad with brown rice and tofu or salmon for a simple meal. It’s also delicious on avocado toast and in wraps.

Best when fresh. The cucumber will continue to release liquid as it sits, so if not serving immediately, it’s nice to serve with a slotted spoon to reduce excess liquid.

This Chickpea Cucumber Salad is a vibrant, crunchy, and satisfying dish packed with plant-based protein, fresh vegetables, and a zesty lemon vinaigrette. Ready in just 15 minutes, it's the perfect healthy and delicious meal for a quick lunch or light dinner.
