Chickpea Salad


This is ridiculously simple.  Hot or cold it's a quick meal on it's own, or a filling for a pita, or a side dish.  You can beat in some eggs and turn it into an omelette, or leave it alone and serve it as a a steak topping (seriously).

1 can Chickpeas
4-6 green onions
1 clove of garlic
handful of baby spinach (or parsley)
roasted red pepper strips
salt and pepper
cumin, cayenne, and turmeric (or curry powder)
1 lemon
olive oil

Rinse and drain the chickpeas.  Finely chop the onion, spinach, roasted peppers, and garlic.  Add salt, pepper and spices to taste.  Add lemon juice.  Drizzle a bit of oil on top, stir and serve.
