Mediterranean Chickpea Salad

Are you in the mood for a hearty salad? I found this mediterranean chickpea salad recipe in Barefoot Contessa's latest cookbook, Foolproof and enjoyed it all last week! It's healthy, delicious, colorful, and very fast to assemble.

Dice a couple of tomatoes, a cucumber, scallions, and add some chopped basil.

Drain and rinse a can of chickpeas.

For the dressing, you add lemon juice, garlic, salt, pepper and olive oil and whisk to combine.

Toss it all together.

Then add feta cheese.

For a hearty accompaniment, I baked two pita bread slices at 350 for about 10 minutes. A touch of olive oil and they're good to go!

I couldn't get enough of this salad. Hope you like it!
