chick pea salad

Healthy chickpea and vegetable pasta salad is light, but packed with flavor and protein. This dish features protein pasta, chick peas, cucumber, cherry tomatoes, red onion and fresh herbs.  The flavorful vinaigrette features olive oil, red wine vinegar, fresh lemon juice, fresh garlic, fresh herbs and oregano. This meal is entirely vegetarian and filling on it&#039;s own because of the protein from the chick peas and protein pasta.  You can also pair it with a lean protein like chicken or shrimp, if you prefer.
