  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Start by finely chopping the red onion and parsley. Halve the cherry tomatoes and dice the avocado. Place all these ingredients in a large mixing bowl.
  2. Open the can of chickpeas, drain the water, and rinse thoroughly under cold water. Add the chickpeas to the bowl with the vegetables.
  3. Crumble the feta cheese over the salad mixture. Sprinkle with dried oregano and season with salt and pepper to taste.

Notes

  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 1-2 days for optimal freshness.
  • If the salad appears dry, add a splash of olive oil or lemon juice before serving.
  • Make ahead: Prepare and refrigerate for up to 24 hours. Add fresh avocado just before serving to prevent browning.
