@nourishment.nutrition: HIGH FIBER MEDITERRANEAN SALAD ⬇️ #ad One of my New Year’s resolutions is to get 30 grams of fiber every day, and this salad is a regular in my rotation to help me reach that goal! What makes this salad so high in fiber? 👉🏽 CHICKPEAS! Chickpeas are a type of pulse that add a nutty, rich flavor and a big dose of fiber. They’re also packed with nutrients like protein, folate, manganese (to name a few). Wondering what pulses are? I’m glad you asked! 🤪 Pulses are the dry, edible seeds of legumes—popular ones include chickpeas, beans, and lentils. They’re packed with essential nutrients and make an affordable, versatile pantry staple. So, if one of your goals this year is to eat more fiber, adding pulses to your meals and snacks is a great place to start! Recipe: • 1 English cucumber or 4 mini cucumbers • 2 C cherry tomatoes • 1/4 red onion • 1 can chickpeas, rinsed & drained • 4 oz feta cheese • 1/3 C fresh mint Dressing: • 1/4 C avocado or olive oil • 1/4 C red wine vinegar • Juice from 1/2 lemon • 1/2 tsp garlic powder • 1/2 tsp dried oregano • 1/2 tsp Dijon mustard • Salt & pepper to taste Instructions: 1. Chop all the veggies into bite-sized pieces. 2. Add the chickpeas and give the mint a rough chop; toss everything together. 3. Mix the dressing ingredients in a small bowl. 4. When ready to serve, drizzle with dressing and sprinkle on the feta cheese. Pro Tip: If storing leftovers, don’t add the feta cheese until serving. 🫘Thank you USA Pulses for sponsoring this post and helping me spread the word about pulses!
