About Chickpea and corn salad

Chickpea and Corn Salad is a vibrant, nutrient-packed dish inspired by Mediterranean and Latin flavors. This refreshing salad typically features protein-rich chickpeas, sweet corn, diced bell peppers, red onions, and fresh herbs like cilantro or parsley, all tossed in a zesty citrus or olive oil-based dressing. Optional additions like avocado, tomatoes, or feta cheese can enhance its texture and taste. High in fiber, plant-based protein, and essential vitamins like vitamin C and folate, this salad supports digestion, heart health, and energy levels. The olive oil or avocado adds healthy monounsaturated fats, while fresh veggies provide antioxidants. However, be mindful of portion sizes with ingredients like cheese or creamy dressings, which can add sodium or extra calories. Perfect as a light lunch or a flavorful side, this salad is a wholesome option for vegetarians and those seeking a low-meat diet.
