Description

Looking for a salad that’s satisfying, protein-packed, and bursting with freshness? This Chickpea Feta Avocado Salad checks all the boxes. With creamy avocado, salty feta, and hearty chickpeas, it’s a flavorful and wholesome dish perfect for any meal.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 can chickpeas – drained and rinsed (or 2 cups cooked chickpeas)
  • 1 large ripe avocado – diced
  • 1 cup feta cheese – crumbled (or goat cheese for variation)
  • 1 medium cucumber – diced
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes – halved
  • 1/4 red onion – thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley – chopped (basil or cilantro optional)
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • Salt and pepper – to taste

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine chickpeas, diced avocado, crumbled feta, cucumber, cherry tomatoes, red onion, and chopped parsley. Gently toss everything together.
  2. Whisk olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper in a small bowl to make the dressing.
  3. Pour dressing over the salad and toss gently to coat all ingredients without mashing the avocado.
  4. Serve right away or chill for 30 minutes for a more intense flavor blend. Enjoy!

Notes

Mix gently to keep avocado chunks whole. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2 days. Add toasted nuts or seeds for extra crunch and swap herbs to suit your flavor mood.
