Mediterranean Diet recipes: Salad

  Chickpeas are one of our favourite legumes, they are very nutritive and tasty. This time we combined them with some cherry tomatoes, corn and turkey ham. A remark: we prefer to use fresh chickpeas but you can cut down on preparation time buying pre-cooked chickpeas.
