Chickpea feta salad

I just love salads! There are so many variations to create a nice salad. But, this is by far my favorite one; the chickpea feta salad! The basics of this salad is arugula, tomato, cucumber and bell pepper. To make it more nutritious, and to transform it from an appetizer into a meal, I added several proteins/healthy fats. Roasted chickpeas, feta cheese and avocado. If I am starving, I add 150g of grilled chicken strips, and you will be filled up for a while, I promise!

Ingredients:

• 5 hands ful of arugula
• 1/3 cucumber
• 1 tomato
• 1/2 bell pepper
• 1/4 avocado
• 50g Greek feta cheese
• 100g chickpeas (from can)
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 1 tbsp of balsamic dressing
• Pepper and salt
• (Optional: 150g of grilled chicken strips)

How to make it:

• Rinse the chickpeas with water, and roast them in a frying pan with a bit of oil for 2 min until golden brown
• Slice the cucumber, tomatoes, bell pepper and avocado
• Put the arugula on a plate and garnish it with all vegetables
• Top off with the roasted chickpeas and crumbled feta cheese
• Finish the salad with olive oil, balsamic vinegar, pepper and salt (and the chicken strips)

Nutritious, delicious & easy to make!
