Taste of Tuesday : Healthy Chickpea Chicken Chop Salad

I made this salad about a month ago and have kept forgetting to share it with all of you.  It’s so fresh and easy as I used a rotisserie chicken from the store and had the rest of the ingredients in the fridge already.  I did grill my corn which made it extra yummy and I used a regular balsamic dressing that I make instead of the BBQ dressing.

Hope you enjoy as much as I did! Can’t wait to make it again soon 🙂

  2. I have become obsessed with chickpeas recently!!! I need to try this one – I usually don't add in the greens – so I'll need to make this one soon!

    This looks delicious! I'm all about salads in the summer and try to use rotisserie chicken when the recipe calls for chicken (easier and cheaper than making it myself!).
