Ingredients
2 15.5-oz cans chickpeas, drained and rinsed (no salt added is best)
-
½ cup Terrapin Ridge Farms Roasted Red Pepper & Feta Dip
½ cup capers (non-pareil), drained (optional)
½ cup fresh parsley leaves, torn
4 tablespoons olive oil, plus more to taste
4 tablespoons red wine vinegar, plus more to taste
1 teaspoon salt, plus more to taste
1 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper, plus more to taste
1/8 cup crumbled feta or Cotija cheese
4 cups arugula
Directions
Drain and dry the chickpeas: Drain and rinse 2 15.5-oz cans chickpeas, drained and rinsed (no salt added is best). Give them a quick pat dry with a paper towel — this helps the dressing cling to them instead of getting watered down.
Toss the base: In a large bowl, combine the chickpeas, ½ cup Terrapin Ridge Farms Roasted Red Pepper & Feta Dip, ½ cup capers (non-pareil), drained (optional), and ½ cup fresh parsley leaves, torn. Add 4 tablespoons olive oil, plus more to taste and 4 tablespoons red wine vinegar, plus more to taste and toss everything together until the chickpeas are well coated.
Season: Add 1 teaspoon salt, plus more to taste and 1 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper, plus more to taste. Taste and adjust — add a splash more vinegar for brightness, more oil for richness, or more salt as needed.
Add the greens and cheese: Fold in 4 cups arugula and top with 1/8 cup crumbled feta or Cotija cheese. If packing for work, keep the arugula separate and toss just before eating so it stays fresh and doesn't wilt.
