Step:

  1. Combine all if the ingredients in a bowl except the lemon juice and oil.

  2. Whisk together lemon and olive oil. Sprinkle with S&P. Taste and adjust seasoning. Add the dressing to the salad bowl. Toss and serve or chill it for up to 5 days.

  3. Mix n' match ingredients like swapping chickpeas for beans or adding green and red peppers with feta and olives for a greek take on the salad. Corn, black beans and jalepenos make for a more southwestern style. Play around with your leftovers!!
