Chickpea, Feta & Tomato Salad
 

2 tomatoes, coarsely chopped
1 c drained, rinsed canned chickpeas
1 red onion, chopped
10 pitted small black olives, halved
3 T balsalmic vinegar
1/4 t freshly ground pepper
1/3 c crumbled feta cheese
2 c torn romaine lettuce

Combine all but the lettuce and mix well. Serve on top of lettuce and enjoy!! It's delicious!!

I made this for lunch today. Totally yummy. Thanks for the great idea.

It's also 555 calories, 17 g. fat, 82 carbs, 18 fiber and 24 protein if this is for one serving. Remember calories do count eventually!

When I made this, I only used 1/2 the olives, 1/2 the chickpeas, and 1/4 cup reduced fat feta, just enough for one person and I had more romaine. It was worth it but not an everyday thing.

I make a salad like this all the time but I don't use feta and I serve it on a bed of mixed baby greens and arugula. It serves 2 generous portions.

Sometimes I make a dressing out of the olives, balsamic and pepper, adding a few fresh cloves of garlic and the juice of one lemon and processing it until it is "saucy" ;) and it is verrrrrrry delicious!

um, this makes a **** of a lot more than two servings, leave the lettuce out, and use abed a lettuce, I'm thinking I might get three meals outof this. I am one person though :).

I make a salad a lot like this but I use 1/2 cup of the chickpeas, 1/4 cup of crumbled feta and a cup of broccoli flowerets instead of the lettuce, and add 1T of olive oil. My one person version is over 500 calories and definitely not low carb but I have it for lunch and it is the highest calorie *meal* I have in one sitting so it fits really well into a 1400 to 1500 calorie plan.

It looks good but I agree it would be three servings probably. It used to be that people could not post a recipe unless they had number of servings and nutritional values if possible. This is an old recipe. (Note the posting date.)
