During summer time, you really aren't in the mood to slave at the kitchen so an easy yet tasty salad with loads of protein is great. I use chickpeas, but you can use lentils of your choice and not split peas as they tend to break easily. A lentil with skin is recommended.
Fresh Summer Chickpea Salad (Serves three)
Ingredients:
300g Chickpeas
1 cup tomato (finely diced)
1 cup cucumber (finely diced)
1 tsp onion (finely diced)
1 tsp of chives (finely diced)
0.25 cup red bell pepper (finely diced)
1 red chilli (finely diced, seeds removed)
3 tsp lemon juice
3 tsp olive oil
1 sprig fresh basil
A pinch of Oregano
salt and pepper to taste
Directions:
Mix it all together and serve.
I'm about to have mine with a fillet of fish. Yummy!
Bon Apetito!
Tanya.
