SESAME CHICK PEA SALAD
This is a refreshing summertime (or anytime!) salad. I serve it as a main dish with whole grain bread, muffins, or crackers. Chives are a perennial,are easy to grow, and don't freeze easily, so they often can be used into the winter months.
1 15.5 ounce can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
2 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
2 -3 carrots, chopped
2 tablespoons canola or other mild flavored oil
1/4 cup cider vinegar
1 tablespoon agave or honey
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup minced fresh chives
2 Roma tomatoes, diced
salt, to taste (opt.)
Combine ingredients and chill two or more hours before serving. Makes about 4 main dish servings.
