Chickpea, chard, and artichoke salad

 

What do you know? Another chickpea and chard recipe! We don't quite know how that happened, except that sturdy, peppery chard and nutty chickpeas seem to go so well together.

This is a delightful little salad that works nicely as a side, or add shredded chicken and make it into a light entreé. It's also really, really easy.

Here's what you need and how you do it

1 bunch chard

1/2 can chickpeas (otherwise known as garbanzo beans)

1/2 cup red onion, sliced thinly (and soaked for 15 minutes to subdue the flavor a little)

1/3 cup kalamata olives

1/2 can artichoke hearts, drained and halved

For dressing:

1/3 cup olive oil

Juice from 1/2 lemon

1/4 teaspoon salt

Ground black pepper

Wash and slice chard into narrow strips. Add chickpeas, red onion, olives and artichoke hearts. Mix dressing ingredients and drizzle over salad.
