Инструкции
- If you have chosen to use dry chickpeas, soak and boil as per instructions. Canned chickpeas need should just be drained and rinsed. Boil peas until tender and allow to cool. Soak couscous as per instructions and allow to cool. Mix chickpeas, couscous, peas, peppers, walnuts, raisins, lemon juice, vinegar, olive oil, parsley and herbs until well blended. Divide into 5 portions and refrigerate until needed. Serve each portion on a bed of shredded lettuce. If you would like to make this recipe even more substantial, add a chopped, grilled chicken breast to each portion, but don't forget to calculate the extra calories!
