Chickpea and Zucchini Salad - Giada De Laurentiis image

This is from Giada De Laurentis. Can use frozen, thawed corn in place of the fresh corn. I also add a tomato to this salad. If I don't have a chunk of Parmesan, I will just sprinkle some grated cheese over the top after mixing in the vinaigrette.

I'm not a fan of raw zucchini, but this salad converted me! The dressing is also delicious.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover chickpeas. It's also a great source of protein and fiber.

This salad was a bit bland for my taste. I added some extra lemon juice and salt, which helped to brighten up the flavors.
