Chickpea and Feta Salad and Good Cook Giveaway

Yum
 The weather is hot and any dish a I can make without turning the stove on is a plus.  This salad comes together in 5 minutes, it's healthy and my kids loved it.

I am also happy to announce that Good Cook is offering 4 vegetable/citrus keeper sets to be given away here at my blog. They gave me a set to try out and I loved the fun and cute keepers.  Sometimes when I make a recipe I only need a half of a lemon, lime, onion, cucumber etc.... These keepers are perfect to put those leftovers in and save until you use them again.  I used to put my onions and tomatoes in a sandwich baggie or plastic wrap, but they can get mushed and dented and not so good looking by the time I go to eat them again. You can even use the larger cantaloupe keeper to store this salad.   So please go to links below and click on the keepers to take a look at them.  Like and Pin them to Facebook to help qualify to win a keeper set.  You have more chances to win below as well.  Good luck! :)




Ingredients:
1 (15oz) can of chickpeas (rinsed and drained well)
1 tomato diced
1/2 English cucumber (or regular cucumber seeded) diced
1/2 red onion finely diced
1/2 cup Feta cheese
1/2 Tbs minced fresh mint
1 Tbs minced fresh parsley

Dressing:
1/2 lemon juiced
1 Tbs canola oil
salt and black pepper to taste
1 tsp rice wine vinegar
1/4 tsp cumin powder

Directions:
Place all prepped ingredients in bowl.  Prepare dressing.  Mix all ingredients together with dressing and chill for 1 hour. Enjoy.

  4. My husband simply will not try chickpeas. It is so frustrating. Lucky for me I have a potluck at work coming up. This will be my dish. Looks light and refreshing.

  5. Oh, that salad looks so amazing. Perfect for summer! And I love those veggie keepers. I'm constantly having to throw away halves of tomatoes because they get mushed or pushed to the back of the fridge where they turn into liquid in a ziploc...pretty gross.
