Ingredients
15 ounces of chickpeas
2 avocados
1/3 cup of cilantro
2 tablespoons of green onion
1/3 cup of feta cheese
Juice of 1 lime
Salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions
1-Getting this salad ready is a breeze, and it only takes about 10 minutes from start to finish. Begin by rinsing and draining 15 ounces of chickpeas to remove any excess liquid. For more tips on handling chickpeas, check out our chickpea recipes guide that dives into creative ways to use them.
2-Next, pit and chop 2 ripe avocados, then chop 1/3 cup of cilantro and 2 tablespoons of green onion. In a medium bowl, stir together the chickpeas, avocados, cilantro, green onion, and 1/3 cup of feta cheese until everything mixes well. Squeeze in the juice of 1 lime for that zesty kick, and season with salt and black pepper to taste.
3-If you’re making a vegan version, just skip the feta cheese to keep it plant-based. Gently toss all the ingredients to avoid mashing the avocado, and you’re good to go. This step-by-step approach makes it easy for home cooks to create a fresh herbs salad without any fuss.

🥑 Use perfectly ripe avocados that yield slightly to gentle pressure for the best creamy texture
🌿 Fresh lime juice is essential – it not only adds zesty flavor but also prevents the avocado from turning brown
💾 This salad is best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days – press plastic wrap directly on the surface to minimize browning
