Indian Chickpea Salad Recipe

By

This Indian chickpea salad recipe is a wonderful side dish for any Indian-inspired main course.

While I don’t claim to be any kind of expert on Indian cooking, I do truly enjoy some of the heady combinations those types of spices have to offer. I will often make a bean salad for snacks because they travel well and don’t need to be immediately refrigerated. I can pack a small container full, stick it in my purse and run my errands. If I get hungry, I know I’ve got something healthy in my purse, and as long as I haven’t been away from the house (and fridge) all day, I feel pretty comfortable eating it.

A white serving bowl with a wooden spoon sits filled with this Indian Chickpea Salad, ready to serve.

But if eating this by itself isn’t really your thing, this will also pair well with any Indian-inspired main course. This would pair really well with a Curry Chicken, a Chicken Vegetable Curry Rollups, or even some Chicken Korma or BBQ Tandoori Chicken. Add a side of Naan and you’ve got quite a delicious Indian meal going on!

A further back view of this Indian Chickpea Salad shows two wooden serving spoons in the bean salad, ready to serve up a dish of this deliciousness.

HOW TO MAKE INDIAN CHICKPEA SALAD:

As long as you’ve got a medium-size mixinb bowl and a wooden spoon, this dish is super simple to put together. Simply pour all the ingredients into your bowl and mix well to combine. Season with salt and pepper to taste and serve! Easy!

STORAGE:
This will keep in the fridge for up to 4 days.

FREEZING:
You can freeze this pretty successfully for up to about 3 months. Just make sure you freeze this in an air-tight container because any air will degrade this pretty quickly in the freezer. A snap-on lid on a container or zipper-top bag if you have one will work best. Just make sure they are freezer-safe and food-safe.

Once again, I’ve partnered with Brother  to show the versatility of the  Brother P-touch Label Maker , especially when it comes to fitness and gym equipment.  As always, thank you for supporting CNC! I receive quite a few questions from readers about what I eat before, during, and after workouts, so I decide to share those with you today. It changes a little bit from workout-to-workout, but I keep a general framework in mind. BEFORE (approximately 30 minutes): I typically eat a small snack made up of mostly simple carbs since they provide quick energy. Some favorites: Half of a banana or another piece of whole fruit, a protein bar, handful of raisins, or a rice cake with jam and sometimes nut butter (it just depends how hungry I am and the timing of my workout). DURING : I typically don’t consume anything during my workouts, unless they’re longer than 90 minutes, like if I’m training for a long distance race (i.e. half marathon). In that case, I’ll take an energy gel and water ev

If we were in a room, almost everyone’s hand would go up, including mine!  With so much of our lives digitized these days, it’s hard not to get overwhelmed with all the information we need to save and reference. And because computers, the internet, and living in email and calendars are relatively new to humans, we as a society are still learning good systems. If I asked you to organize a paper filing cabinet, you’d probably have a few good ideas on how to do that. But if I asked you to organize a computer hard drive, many of us get stumped on the sheer volume of files and the endless ways to sort.  The good news is there are apps that make this process more intuitiv
