How to Make Chickpea Salad
Preparing chickpea salad do not require any cooking; all you have to do is get all the ingredients ready and combine everything in a bowl, and mix.
Start by washing the canned chickpeas. Let the water drip and then arrange it in a mixing bowl. Chop the onion, garlic, scallions (this is also known as green onions), flat leaf parsley, and black olives. Add all of these in the mixing bowl where the chickpeas are and then add the sun-dried tomato.

Drizzle with olive oil and lemon and sprinkle some salt and pepper.
