Рецепт Herbed Chickpea Salad with a Dijon Vinaigrette
Our local Market District has a great, simple Chickpea Salad that I l-o-v-e. Since R is a big chickpea fan too, I decided to work on a homemade version for us to enjoy anytime.
A balance of the fresh, crisp herbs and a light dijon vinaigrette marry well with the earthy chickpeas. Try this recipe, it is a quick, unique side dish!
