Ingredients
- ½ cup thinly sliced red onion
- 5 ounces arugula (spinach, or mixed greens of choice)
- 1 (15-ounce) can reduced sodium chickpeas (rinsed and drained)
- ½ English cucumber (halved lengthwise, seeded, and sliced 1/4-inch thick (heaping 1 cup))
- 1 pint grape or cherry tomatoes (halved (scant 2 cups))
- 1 small red bell pepper (cut into 1/2-inch dice (1 heaping cup))
- ⅔ cup crumbled feta cheese
- Lemon vinaigrette
Steps
-
Place the red onion in a small bowl and cover with cold water. Let sit at least 5 minutes, then drain (this removes some of the harsh bite).
-
Place the arugula in a large bowl and drizzle lightly with the dressing. Toss to coat.
-
Add the cucumber, cherry tomatoes, bell pepper, chickpeas, and drained red onion. Drizzle with a little more dressing then toss gently to combine.
-
Last, add 3/4 of the feta, and toss very gently. Add salt and pepper to taste. Sprinkle the remaining feta over the top. Divide between serving bowls and serve with additional dressing as desired.
