Ingredients

6 servings
  • 2 can s (15 ounces each) chickpeas, rinsed and drained, or 3 cups cooked chickpeas
  • ⅔ cup chopped roasted red peppers (I used most of a 12-ounce jar)
  • ⅔ cup crumbled feta cheese
  • ½ cup chopped fresh basil
  • ⅓ cup olive oil
  • ¼ cup red wine vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon + 1 teaspoon honey
  • 4 medium cloves garlic, pressed or minced
  • ½ teaspoon dried oregano
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes (scale back significantly if sensitive to spice)

Steps

  1. In a medium serving bowl, combine the chickpeas, red peppers, feta and basil.

  2. In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, vinegar, honey, garlic, oregano, salt, pepper and red pepper flakes.

  3. Pour the dressing over the chickpeas and stir. Cover the bowl and stick it in the fridge for at least 30 minutes, for best flavor. The salad keeps for up to 5 days in the refrigerator.
