The original recipe comes from Chef Savvy.
I've been fighting yet another cold, and was looking for something quick to whip up for a late lunch/snack when I stumbled upon this recipe on Pinterest, of course.
It is so colorful and packed with flavor, and healthy too! What's not to like?
Mediterranean Salsa
Ingredients:
1 (10.5 ounce can) chickpeas, drained
1 clove garlic, minced
1/2 cup cucumber, diced
1 cup tomato, diced
1/2 cup olives, diced
1/4 cup red onion, diced
1 tablespoon parsley, chopped (I used dried because it was all I had on hand)
1/4 teaspoon, dried oregano
1 tablespoon basil, chopped
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
1. Add all of the ingredients to a medium bowl. Toss to combine.
2. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
3 Serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to serve.
As I mentioned, it is perfect alone as a side or serve with tortilla scoops as an appetizer.
Enjoy!!

This recipe really caught my attention.
Living in South Texas, we have every variety of salsa you can imagine.
I have never made one with chickpeas.
Now I can!
Thank you,
