I'm not a huge fan of chickpeas, but I really enjoyed this salad. The dressing is delicious and the chickpeas are well-seasoned. I would definitely make it again.

This salad is a great source of protein and fiber. It's also very versatile. You can add different vegetables or herbs to change up the flavor. I also like to serve it on a bed of lettuce or spinach.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chickpeas. I always have a can or two in my pantry and I'm always looking for new ways to use them. This salad is a delicious and healthy option.
