Chickpea Salad with Tahini Dressing

Chickpea Salad with Tahini Dressing

This Chickpea Salad with Tahini Dressing is a vibrant, Mediterranean-inspired dish that brings together fresh vegetables, creamy vegan feta, and hearty chickpeas—all tossed in a rich, nutty tahini dressing. It’s a colorful, nutrient-dense salad that’s perfect for lunch, meal prep, or a flavorful side at your next gathering.

Chickpeas provide plant-based protein and fiber, making the salad both filling and energizing. Crisp cucumber and red bell pepper add freshness and crunch, while thinly sliced red onion and briny kalamata olives give it a bold, savory edge. The vegan feta adds a creamy, tangy contrast that ties the whole dish together beautifully.

The creamy tahini dressing is what elevates this salad from simple to unforgettable. Made with wholesome ingredients, it adds a silky texture and earthy richness that complements the bright, crisp vegetables and hearty legumes. Best of all, the salad holds up well in the fridge, making it ideal for meal prep or next-day leftovers.
