Ingredients
  

  • 15 oz can chickpeas (rinsed and drained)
  • 1 large mango (peeled and diced)
  • 1 avocado (diced)
  • 1/2 red bell pepper (finely diced)
  • 1/2 small red onion (finely diced)
  • 1/4 cup cilantro (fresh, chopped)
  • 1 jalapeño (finely minced, remove seeds for less heat)
  • 3 tbsp fresh lime juice
  • 2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1/4 tsp cumin
  • salt and black pepper (to taste)

Instructions
 

  • Combine Salad Ingredients: In a large bowl, gently combine the rinsed chickpeas, diced mango, diced avocado, diced red bell pepper, diced red onion, chopped cilantro, and minced jalapeño (if using). Be gentle when mixing to avoid mashing the avocado too much.
  • Make the Dressing: In a small bowl or jar, whisk together the fresh lime juice, olive oil, cumin, salt, and pepper until well combined.
  • Dress the Salad: Pour the lime dressing over the mango chickpea mixture. Toss gently until everything is lightly coated.
  • Chill (Optional): For best flavor, cover.
