by | Aug 5, 2020

Ingredients

  • For the Salad:

    • 2 cups chickpeas, drained 
    • 1 cup of snap peas, thinly sliced
    • 1 cup asparagus, cut into small pieces 
    • 5 radishes, thinly sliced 
    • 1 cup of baby sweet peppers, thinly sliced 
    • 4 green onions, thinly sliced
    • ¼ cup parsley
    • ¼ cup cilantro 
    • 100 grams avocado, diced 

    For the dressing:

    • 2 tablespoons lemon juice 
    • 3 tablespoons olive oil 
    • 1 teaspoon maple syrup 
    • Dash of cayenne pepper
    • 1 tbsp flax meal 
    • 1 tsp sea salt (more or less depending on your likes!) 
    • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

  1. Prep chickpeas, veggies, herbs, and green onions and add them to a large bowl. 
  2. Toss together with lemon juice, olive oil, maple syrup, and salt and pepper. Add more salt, pepper, or even cayenne depending on how you are feeling!
  3. Add the avocado last. I like to add the avocado right before serving and then mix it into the salad when I add the dressing!
