A friend recently posted this chickpea and kale salad on Pintrest and I have been meaning to try it ever since. Courtesy of the Wishful Chef, I made it last night and it was sooooo good. I loooove chickpeas and this is by far the best way I have ever eaten kale.
With one can of organic chickpeas, I chopped and mixed 4 leaves of organic kale, a few leaves of organic basil that I am growing in my kitchen window, and a handful of organic mixed baby lettuces. I mixed it with a clove of garlic, a little olive oil and 1/2 a fresh, organic lemon. I added a little salt and pepper. I also used my zester to shred some parmesan (as I didn’t have romano) on top.
You all have to try this. I will be making it all summer…and fall….and winter….Okay, so it’s a really great salad, all year round. Thanks, Wishful Chef, for a really healthy, new salad. Love it! I can’t wait to go home and eat my leftovers.
Yum! This does sound delicious. I’m loving your blog!
Thanks Caito! You will totally love it. Plus, no gluten.
thanks for the complement on the blog!
Yummy! All of my favorite things! I make a version but like the suggestion of adding in baby greens (even though they are now out of season and no longer present in my Arizona garden)
Thanks! when your greens are in season, add them! Let me know what you think. I am going to try it with parsley next time. I wish I could have a garden but my small NYC apartment isn’t conducive to gardening. :-/ One day though! Maybe a rooftop garden?
