Ingredients

Scale

  • 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1 medium cucumber, diced
  • 1 small red onion, finely sliced
  • A handful of fresh parsley, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice

  • Black pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare the ingredients: Rinse and drain the chickpeas. Dice the avocados and cucumbers, halve the cherry tomatoes, and thinly slice the red onion. Set everything aside.
  2. Make the dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil and freshly squeezed lemon juice. Add a pinch of salt and freshly cracked black pepper to taste. Set aside.

  5. Pour the dressing: Drizzle the lemon-olive oil dressing evenly over the salad. Toss lightly until everything is coated with the dressing.
  6. Taste and adjust: Taste the salad and adjust the seasoning if necessary. Add more salt or pepper if needed.
  7. Serve: Transfer the salad to a serving platter or individual plates. Garnish with extra parsley or a sprinkle of black pepper if desired.
