Instructions
 

Preparation

  • In a medium bowl, combine the chickpeas, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, red onion, feta cheese, and Kalamata olives.
  • In a small separate bowl, whisk together the olive oil, red wine vinegar, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper to create the dressing.

Assembly

  • Add the mixed greens to a meal prep container or serving bowl.
  • Spoon the chickpea and vegetable mixture over the greens.
  • Pour the dressing over the bowl just before serving or pack it separately.

Notes

Pack the dressing separately if preparing for meal prep to prevent greens from becoming soggy. A squeeze of fresh lemon adds a burst of extra flavor just before eating.
