chickpea + bell pepper salad

You have to try this! This is such a staple in my family, especially during the summer time, but I loooove it all year round! It’s a perfect go-to for a refreshing side or quick veggie snack!

Ingredients:

• 2 15oz. cans of garbanzo beans/chickpeas

• 3 bell peppers (I prefer the red, orange and yellow!)

• 1 handful of parsley

• 3 T extra virgin olive oil

• salt to taste

• fine black pepper to taste

• garlic powder to taste

Directions:

• Open the garbanzo beans and pour into a colander to drain out the liquid. While that drains, chop the bell pepper and parsley.

• Mix all ingredients together and take a quick taste to make sure your seasonings are to your preference!

• I like to let it sit for at least 20 minutes so that the flavors soak together but it can be enjoyed right away!

Hope you guys enjoy this and let me know what you think over on instagram (@jennpappas_)!
