Ingredients

Chickpeas
  • 460 g chickpeas, strained and rinsed
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • salt to taste
Dressing
  • 3 tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp dijon mustard
  • 1 tsp syrup
  • salt and pepper to taste
Salad
  • 6 kiwis, cubed
  • 100 g blueberries

  • 50 g plant-based feta cheese, crumbled
  • 40 g walnuts, roughly chopped
  • 40 g fresh basil, chopped
  • 2 avocados, cubed

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 200 degrees celsius and prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper. Spread the chickpeas evenly onto the baking sheet. Drizzle with oil and sprinkle with salt. Roast in the middle of the oven until the chickpeas are crispy, about 20-25 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, make the dressing by combining all dressing ingredients (balsamic vinegar, olive oil, dijon mustard, syrup, salt and pepper) to a small bowl and whisk together until the dressing no longer separates and becomes thick.
  • To assemble, add all ingredients (roasted chickpeas, dressing, kiwi, blueberries, spinach, plant feta cheese, walnuts, basil, avocado and red onion) to a large bowl and toss to combine.
