Chickpea Mediterranean Bonanza

Happy May to all you foodies! This is so simple to make but it delivers such a fresh punch of umami flavors that you won't be able to drop your fork or possibly start eating with your hands! Not only will this deliver over 15 grams of protein and 6 grams of fiber but it's very low in calories and sugar. What better way to go meatless and on the go than a packed salad that will keep you full and energized! Smacznego :)
