Curried Chickpea Salad


This amazing recipe is courtesy of Wholefoods.com.  I made a few modifications to accomodate our diet and I will share those with you below.  Whole Foods Market is a great resource for recipies, and every recipe we have tried thus far has been wonderful. 

My version of Curried Chickpea Salad:

2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
2 tablespoons lime juice
1/4 cup olive oil
2 teaspoons curry powder
2 teaspoons maple syrup
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup seedless raisins
1 teaspoon cumin, toasted
2 (15-ounce) cans cooked chickpeas, rinsed and drained
2/3 cup finely chopped red onion
1/2 cup cilantro and parsley, chopped
8 cups mixed greens

In a large bowl, whisk together vinegar, lime juice, olive oil, curry powder, maple syrup and salt. Add raisins, cumin, chickpeas,  onion, parsley and cilantro and toss to combine. Spoon chickpea salad over salad greens.

Eyla loved the chickpeas in this recipe.
