A fun twist on tabbouleh, this Lebanese chopped salad with chickpeas (Salata Hommos) is bursting with fresh flavors and packed with protein.

Ingredients

1 can of precooked chick peas
6 tablespoons olive oil

Take the chick peas out of the water and quickly plunge them in salted boiling water. When it starts boiling again, take them out, rinse them with cold water, pout them in a clean towel and gently rub them to remove the skins.
