Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 tablespoon Sugar
  • 1 Fresh Garlic Clove
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons Roasted Sesame Seeds
  • 2 tablespoons Sesame Oil
  • 4 tablespoons Seasoned Rice Vinegar
  • 1/4 cup French Sweet Applewood Mustard Spread (or Dijon Honey Mustard)
  • 1/4 cup chopped Sun-dried Tomatoes in oil
  • 4 oz French Feta Cheese – or any crumbled Feta (French Feta is super creamy so it’s not easy to crumble but do your best it doesn’t have to be perfect!) 🥰
  • 1/4 cup Sour Cream
  • 4 Persian Cucumbers
  • 2 Roma Tomatoes
  • 3 stems Green Onions
  • 1/2 bunch (2 oz) Italian Parsley
  • 1 1/2 cups cooked (drained/rinsed) Chickpeas (Garbanzo Beans)

Toppings

  • 1 handful of Roasted Walnuts

Instructions

  1. Chop your cucumbers, tomatoes, green onions, and parsley and place them into a large mixing bowl. Drain and wash your chickpeas and place them into the same bowl.
  2. Add grated garlic, crumble your feta cheese (not easy to crumble because it’s super creamyso do your best and crumble it), sun-dried tomatoes (drained), sesame oil, seasoned rice vinegar, roasted sesame seeds, sugar, sweet applewood mustard (or Honey Mustard) and sour cream in the same bowl and give it a toss to a light coat but don’t over mix!

Notes

  • If you’re using a regular cucumber (not a Persian cucumber), I recommend cutting it lengthwise, and then using a spoon to scrape out and remove the inner pulp. Leaving the pulp can make your salad too soggy.
