Fresh Chickpea Salad Recipe with Lemon and Dill

We just love this chickpea salad recipe with bright lemon, fresh dill, crisp cucumber and sweet tomatoes. To make it, we use canned chickpeas, so this one is extra easy.

Make Our Chickpea Salad Recipe For Now Or In Advance

You can even make this chickpea salad ahead of time – overnight even works. If you are making this up to one hour in advance, just toss, cover and keep in the refrigerator. If you want to make it more than one hour in advance, keep the tomatoes separate until an hour before serving as they can become mushy.
