Tangy Hot Chickpea Salad


Change up your salad routine with this hearty chickpea salad that's equal parts refreshing, healthy & hot! Simply combine all the ingredients in a large serving bowl.

Make it!
Mix the dressing ingredients together in a small bowl.  Toss it all together. This salad is great served right away & only gets better the longer it sits in the dressing & chills in the fridge. 
Ingredients:
  • 2-8oz cans of chickpeas (rinse & drain)
  • 1 jalapeno pepper (seed & dice)
  • 1 cup baby spinach (chiffonade)
  • 1 cup arugula (rough chop)
