Simply opening a tin of chickpeas is the first step in this vegetable salad, which is wonderfully crunchy and garlicky. Be careful not to dress this salad too early. Salt draws water from the cabbage and you don’t want a puddle of juice at the bottom. Leave to dress right before serving. Saying that, any leftovers can be stored overnight for lunch boxes. Add some feta and a piece of chicken on top for some extra protein and, voila, a tasty lunch.

For the dressing

¼ cupPeanut butter, smooth
2 TbspHoney
2 TbspWarm water
2 TbspLemon juice
2Garlic cloves, crushed
2 tspFish sauce
2 tspSoy sauce

For the salad

420 gChickpeas, 1 tin, drained and rinsed (Main)
2 cupsGreen cabbage, shredded
1 cupRed cabbage, shredded
1Beetroot, raw, peeled, and cut into fine sticks
1 cupCoriander, roughly chopped

Directions

  1. Firstly, make the dressing in a jar. Add the peanut butter, honey, water, lemon juice, garlic, fish sauce and soy, giving it a really good shake until smooth.
  2. Into a large bowl place the chickpeas, cabbages, beetroot and coriander, tossing to combine.
  3. Just before serving, stir through the dressing. Season with salt and freshly ground pepper.
