How to Make Auntie Bonnie's Chickpea Salad
- Combine 1 (15-ounce) can chickpeas (drained and rinsed), 1/2 cup finely chopped red onion, 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley, 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper in a large bowl.
- Gently mash some of the chickpeas with a fork to create a slightly chunky, creamy texture. Alternatively, use an immersion blender for a smoother consistency.
- Stir in 1/4 cup chopped celery (optional) and 1/4 cup chopped cucumber (optional).
- Taste and adjust seasonings as needed.
- Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow flavors to meld. This step enhances the overall taste and texture.
