An energising and filling salad, High Protein Chickpea Salad combines chickpeas with crisp veggies and crunchy nuts. The chickpeas are packed with iron, fibre, and plant-based protein, and chia seeds and peanuts round out the dish with texture and an additional protein punch. If you're trying to eat clean, get more out of your workouts, or make nutritious meals ahead of time, this salad is for you. You can make it your own by adding seasonal vegetables and spices, and it's naturally gluten-free and vegan. Thanks to the lemon–olive oil dressing, it stays light and refreshing, and the addition of flaxseeds and pumpkin seeds increases the micronutrients and omega-3s. This High Protein Chickpea Salad is perfect for weeknights when you're short on time but still want a nutritious and flavourful lunch. It goes well both cold and at room temperature.
