Dive into the flavors of the Mediterranean with this chickpea bowl! Packed with chickpeas, couscous, olives, and veggies, this vibrant dish is full of color and nutrition that makes healthy eating a rewarding experience!
Rinse and drain the canned chickpeas, then set aside.
In a saucepan, bring 1 cup of water to a boil. Add couscous, cover, and remove from heat. Let it steam for about 5 minutes, then fluff with a fork.
Chop the cherry tomatoes, cucumber, and red onion into bite-sized pieces. Combine them in a large bowl with the chickpeas and olives.
In a separate small bowl, whisk together lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and black pepper to create a dressing.
Pour the dressing over the chickpea mixture, then toss in chopped fresh parsley.
Serve by placing a scoop of couscous in bowls and topping it with the chickpea salad. Enjoy!
