Notes

  • Roast the chickpeas with salt, pepper, cumin, and smoked paprika (a hearty shake of each) and then use them in this Mediterranean salad and the taco salad above. Here are the full instructions for an easy way to roast chickpeas. 
  • If you want to add cucumber to this salad, throw it in the day you’re going to eat or serve the salad.
  • Prep a few of these for the week and you can use up the whole can artichoke hearts.
