Simple Chickpea Harvest Salad for the most perfect

Simple Chickpea Harvest Salad for the most perfect plant-based lunch! It has so much flavor and, of course, some hidden veggies ;). Stocked up on all of the items to make this plus my usual go-to grocery staples at the new @aldiusa Old Town location in Chicago! I'm so excited they opened their doors in Old Town - the selection was amazing and they had everything I needed for the week from fresh produce, to gluten free products, and all of my pantry staples at amazing prices! Check my stories for my full grocery haul and see below for the chickpea harvest salad recipe, and let me know if you check out the new Old Town location! #sponsored #ALDILove

Recipe:
1 (15 oz) can of chickpeas, drained and rinsed
1/4 cup frozen butternut squash, steamed to fork tender
1 tbsp Simply Nature Organic Apple Cider Vinegar
1/2 tbsp dijon mustard
1 tsp Simply Nature Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tsp honey
1/2 tsp sea salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
1/4 tsp smoked paprika
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1/4 cup red onion, finely diced
1/4 cup Southern Grove chopped pecans
1/4 cup apples, diced into small pieces

For serving:
Toasted Specially Selected Sourdough Round
Simply Nature Organic Chopped Kale, massaged with a little olive oil

1. Whisk together the apple cider vinegar, mustard, olive oil, honey, and seasonings. Mash together the chickpeas, butternut squash, and the dressing. Some whole chickpeas remaining are ok. You could also stir in some vegan mayo if you like it!
2. Use a rubber spatula to fold in the red onion, pecans, and apple pieces until everything is well-combined.
3. Serve chickpea salad over massaged kale on a piece of toasted sourdough. Enjoy!

make sheet pan meals your best friend!! they’re

make sheet pan meals your best friend!! they’re quick and easy, and the best way to add a bunch of color to your plate! i set my oven to 425 and toss any veggie/veggie scraps on hand with avocado oil and any seasonings i like! i really don’t measure anything, so it’s a pretty mindless way to make a nourishing lunch or dinner! it’s been my favorite way to get some variety in my diet and also reduce any food waste.

tips:

fave seasonings to use:
garlic
smoked paprika
italian seasonings
cayenne for spice
turmeric
sea salt + pepper

i love to add thinly sliced red onions for extra flavor and some prebiotics, then i just use what i’ve got! typically i choose one starchy veg (butternut squash, sweet potatoes, or regular potatoes), then toss in brussels sprouts or broccoli and bell peppers.

let your veggies that take longer to cook roast for 15ish mins, then toss in some kale and roast for another 10 mins or so if you want some extra green!

you can easily add some chickpeas? tofu, or chicken sausage to the mix too!
