Instructions:

Make the dressing: In a small bowl or jar, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, salt, and pepper. Set aside.

Chop the ingredients: Chop all the salad ingredients (cucumber, bell pepper, red onion, avocado) into roughly ½-inch pieces.

Assemble the salad: In a large bowl, combine the chopped cucumber, bell pepper, red onion, and avocado. Add the chickpeas and herbs.

Dress and serve: Pour the desired amount of dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine. Serve immediately, or chill for later.

Tips:

For added protein, grilled chicken, shrimp, or crumbled feta cheese would be delicious additions.

Feel free to use your favorite herbs – dill, parsley, or mint would all be great substitutes.

This salad is best enjoyed fresh, but leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.
