Chickpea, beet, corn and pea salad brings together cooked chickpeas, beetroot, sweetcorn and peas. It is a flexible combination rather than a dish tied to one particular regional tradition, and can be made with freshly cooked or ready-to-use ingredients.
The chickpeas give it a satisfying bite, while the earthy beetroot and sweet vegetables keep the flavours balanced. Serve it chilled or at room temperature as a light lunch, a side for grilled food, or part of a larger spread; lemon and herbs make a bright dressing. With fibre and plant protein, it is more substantial than a simple leafy salad. Keep the dressing modest and add leafy greens if you want a lighter plate.
