This is one of the lightest, freshest meals or side dishes with wonderful flavour combinations. So many health benefits from the chickpeas, fresh herbs, cucumber and red onion. Make this salad vegan by omitting the cheese.

Recipe Notes

I like this salad with a very simple dressing of olive oil, balsamic vinegar, just a drizzle of each, and salt and pepper.
Pecans or pistachios work really well with this chikpea salad too!
