Servings: 2 as a main
Calories: 585kcal
Ingredients
For the salad:
- 4 cups mixed greens
- ½ cup chopped parsley
- 2 Tablespoons chopped mint
- ¼ cup sliced olives
- 4 radish thinly sliced
- ½ pint cherry tomatoes quartered
- ¼ red onion thinly sliced
- 1 whole wheat pita cut into strips and toasted
- ½ cucumber sliced and quartered
- ¾ cup chickpeas
For the dressing:
- ⅓ cup olive oil
- 3 Tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 1 clove pressed garlic
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground sumac
- ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Heat your oven to 400℉. Cut the pita bread into bite sized strips and spread out on a baking sheet. Bake in the oven until crispy about 5 minutes or so depending on the freshness of the bread. Mine were already a few days old, so they toasted pretty quickly.
- To make the salad dressing combine the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, salt, sumac and cinnamon in a small jar. Shake to mix.
- Add all the salad ingredients to a bowl with about ⅔ of the salad dressing. Toss well to combine and enjoy!
Notes
This recipe does not use all the dressing - it should take about ⅔ of it to dress the salad.
