  • Total Time: 15 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (15-ounce) can chickpeas, rinsed and drained
  • 2 ripe peaches, pitted and sliced
  • 4 cups mixed greens (spinach, arugula, romaine blend)
  • 1/4 red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 English cucumber, diced
  • 1/4 cup fresh mint leaves, chopped (optional)
  • 1/4 cup toasted slivered almonds (optional, for crunch)
  • 3 tablespoons fresh lime juice (from 2-3 limes)
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. Prepare the dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the fresh lime juice, extra virgin olive oil, honey, sea salt, and black pepper until well combined and emulsified. Set aside.
  2. Assemble the salad components: In a large salad bowl, combine the rinsed and drained chickpeas, sliced peaches, mixed greens, thinly sliced red onion, diced cucumber, and chopped fresh mint (if using).
  3. Dress the salad: Pour the prepared honey-lime dressing over the salad ingredients. Toss gently to ensure all components are evenly coated and glistening with the dressing.
  4. Serve and enjoy: Divide the dressed salad among individual serving bowls. For an added textural element, sprinkle with toasted slivered almonds just before serving. Enjoy immediately for maximum freshness.

Notes

For best results, use firm-ripe peaches that offer a perfect balance of sweetness and texture. If you’re feeling adventurous, briefly grill the peach slices for a smoky-sweet depth of flavor. This salad is best enjoyed fresh, but any leftover dressing can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Elevate this salad further by adding grilled chicken, pan-seared halloumi, or crumbled plant-based feta for an extra protein boost or tangy kick.
