Zesty Middle Eastern Chickpea and Herb Salad

In a large bowl, combine the rinsed and drained chickpeas, chopped fresh parsley, chopped fresh mint, diced red onion, and halved cherry tomatoes.

In a small separate bowl, whisk together the fresh lemon juice, extra virgin olive oil, ground cumin, salt, and black pepper to create the dressing.

Pour the dressing over the chickpea and vegetable mixture.

Toss gently until all ingredients are well combined and coated with the dressing.

Serve immediately or chill for at least 15 minutes for flavors to meld.
