How to Make Chickpea Beetroot Salad

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Wash and chop 1 medium beetroot into 1-inch cubes. Toss with 1 tbsp olive oil, salt, and pepper. Roast for 20-25 minutes, or until tender.
  2. While the beetroot roasts, prepare the remaining ingredients. Chop 1 medium apple into ½-inch cubes. Finely chop ½ small red onion. Drain and rinse 1 can (15 oz) chickpeas. Roughly chop ½ cup fresh parsley.
  3. In a large bowl, combine the roasted beetroot, apple, red onion, chickpeas, and parsley.
  4. In a small bowl or jar, whisk together ¼ cup olive oil, 2 tbsp lemon juice, 1 tbsp red wine vinegar, 1 tbsp honey or maple syrup, salt, and pepper to taste.
  5. Pour the dressing over the salad and gently toss to combine.
  6. Crumble 4 oz feta cheese over the salad.
  7. Allow the salad to sit for at least 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld before serving. Enjoy!
