JUMP TO RECIPE
I love how simple this salad bowl is because it’s packed with delicious veggies! I purposely left out leafy greens since I made this just for my daughter, Vienna, using all her favorite vegetables.
This recipe is…
I usually whip up this salad on weekends so I have a quick and healthy lunch option ready to go during the week. It serves 4-6 people.
I also created a recipe video you can check out here.
Important Note:
Always use organic chickpeas, whether dried or canned. Non-organic ones might be contaminated with glyphosate, the main ingredient in Round-Up, which the World Health Organization considers a probable carcinogen. You might have heard about the 2018 report on high glyphosate levels in some popular hummus brands.
When I buy hummus, I go for the organic Sunflower Kitchen Hummus, especially because my daughter loves it so much! Alternatively, you can make your own hummus with organic chickpeas.

I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as we do!
My husband reminded me we have four cans of chickpeas, and I finally decided how to use them—thanks to this recipe!
Perfect! Enjoy!!
Thank you for sharing the information about glyphosate levels!
No problem! It’s good to know, especially if you’re a hummus lover like me.
Do you have any tips for keeping herbs fresh? I spend a lot on fresh herbs, but they don’t last long. What’s your secret?
These are some of my son’s favorites too! I can’t wait to try it with dill as my herb of choice. Thanks for sharing!
Glad to hear that! I hope you can join me tomorrow—I’m making it on IG Live with my daughter. It will be fun! [Instagram link]
To keep herbs fresh, cut the bottoms off and place them in a mason jar with water in the fridge, like cut flowers.
This is such a quick and easy recipe. I made it last weekend, and it was both filling and delicious!
So happy to hear that!
Yum Yum indeed. Can’t wait to make this TODAY. Thank you!
