Vegan Mediterranean Salad
Ingredients needed:
4-5 cups (loosely packed) Salad greens
1 can chickpeas (rinse and drain)
1 Cucumber
1 Red onion
1 Red bell pepper
Handful of cherry tomatoes
1 /3 cup Kalamata olives
(optional: top Follow Your Heart Vegan Feta Cheese and fresh parsley)
For the vinaigrette:
3 tbsp Olive oil
2 tbsp Red wine vinegar
1 tbsp Fresh squeezed lemon juice
1 tbsp Dijon mustard
1 tbsp Maple syrup
1 tsp Oregano
Salt and pepper
Directions:

The first step is to roast the chickpeas. I cook mine in the air fryer (350 degrees for 12 minutes), but you can also bake them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper at 400 degrees for 30 minutes (stop and shake the sheet halfway through baking to flip the chickpeas).
Thinly slice the red onion and red bell pepper. Chop the cucumber and toss with the salad greens. Top with the Kalamata olives and dairy-free feta cheese.

In a small bowl, whisk the olive oil, red wine vinegar, fresh lemon juice, Dijon mustard, maple syrup, oregano and salt and pepper together.
Pour on the dressing and enjoy!
