Herbal Cucumber Salad
INGREDIENTS:
Dressing:
1/4 cup olive oil
1/3 cup Greek yogurt
2 tbsp lemon juice
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 tsp fresh mint, chopped
1 tsp oregano
salt & pepper to taste
Salad:
2 large English cucumbers, thinly sliced
1 (14 oz) can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
1/4 of a red onion, thinly sliced
1/4 cup flat-leaf parsley, chopped
1/4 cup fresh mint leaves, chopped
2 tbsp fresh dill, chopped
INSTRUCTIONS:
Mix the dressing ingredients together until fully emulsified. Set aside
Using a mandolin, slice the cucumbers and red onion into a large mixing bowl
Chop fresh herbs (parsley, mint, and dill) and add to mixing bowl
Rinse chickpeas (chickpeas / garbanzo beans - same thing!) and drain well. Add to mixing bowl
Now carefully start adding the dressing to the salad and toss well. Start adding too little dressing - you can always add more, you can’t remove any if you add too much!
Chill for minimum 2 hours in the fridge
Eat & Enjoy!
