Chick Pea Salad


This is a recreation of a salad we purchased at Smith's in Sudbury. It was so delicious, we made our own home version.

Ingredients: 

1/2 cup Tricolor chick peas (or if not available),
1/2 cup of Sprouted Chick Peas*

2 TBS freshly squeezed orange juice, or 1 TBS orange juice concentrate
1 TBS finely diced red pepper
1 TBS finely diced green pepper, or yellow pepper
1 TBS finely diced red onion
1 TBS finely chopped green onion, white & green
Juice of 1/2 lime (about 2 tsp)
1 TBS white wine vinegar
1 TBS chopped fresh cilantro (coriander)
salt & pepper
pinch of sugar (optional)

Directions: 

Add all the ingredients together in a bowl.  Mix, and adjust to taste.
Keeps in the fridge for about 2-3 days.

* The sprouted chick peas are available at Whole Foods, but if you can't find them, you could use canned chick peas (1 can Garbanzo beans). Drain the chick peas, and then double the ingredients given above as it will make a larger quantity.
