Yummy Lunches

Recently I have been craving Chickpea Salad, ever since having an amazing one at Burnside cafe, and watching Daniele make one the other night for dinner. So decided to make my own, and the results were delicious!
Hopefully you have enough time at lunch to make this, I happened to that day because I had just handed in my second term paper. And a fresh salad for lunch was a good reward for being done two term papers.

I did my usual recipe adapting from here, you know replacing tomatoes with green peppers and fresh squeezed lemon juice with non name brand lemon juice. But mostly it is the same.

Ingredients
1 can chickpeas
1 green pepper, chopped
1/2 red onion, diced
1/2 cucumber, chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
1 tbsp. dill
3 green onions, chopped
1/4 cup olive oil
1/3 cup lemon juice
1/4 tsp. pepper

So fresh!
Directions
Pretty simple, it's a salad so chop up your vegetables, throw everything together and mix well. The recipe said to let sit in the fridge for an hour so the flavours can "meld". Or you can not and say you did, it tastes the same otherwise.

Yum yum yum. My first experiment with dill turned out very well.
