Summer Chickpea Salad
This salad of crunchy radishes, juicy cherry tomatoes, mild green onions, chickpeas, and feta is delicious with or without lettuce. For a different spin, combine the leftover bean mixture with a can of tuna! Keep the mixture separate from the salad greens until you’re ready to serve, then top with creamy avocado slices.
