2 servings
Ingredients
- 1 15 oz can chickpeas, rinsed and drained
- 1/4 cup finely diced cucumber
- 1/4 cup finely diced tomato
- 2 tbsp finely diced red onion
- 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 1/4 tsp dried oregano
- 1/4 tsp garlic powder
- a pinch salt
- 2 whole wheat pita breads
Instructions
In a medium bowl, mash the rinsed and drained chickpeas with a fork or potato masher until mostly broken down but still slightly chunky. Add the diced cucumber, tomato, red onion, and fresh parsley to the bowl. Pour in the olive oil and lemon juice, then sprinkle with oregano, garlic powder, and salt. Mix well until all ingredients are thoroughly combined. Warm the pita breads slightly if desired (in a toaster or microwave). Carefully open each pita to form a pocket. Spoon half of the chickpea salad into each pita pocket and serve immediately.
