Fresh Vegan Corn and Chickpea Salad
I always bring a bowl of this Fresh Corn and Chickpea Salad on family picnics. One of our favorite family pastimes in summer is to take a picnic and drive to a nearby forest or lake and spend the day splashing about or climbing trees. Of course, all that outdoor activity means big appetites when lunchtime comes around! We love the crunch of the fresh corn and the freshness of the cucumber and lime juice. The addition of chickpeas makes this is a filling picnic lunch.
It couldn’t be easier to throw this salad together. Start by mixing the corn, chickpeas and cucumber together in a bowl. Lightly fry the scallions, then coat everything with olive oil, lime juice and cilantro leaves. A delicious lunch in under 15 minutes.
To make this version of Fresh Corn and Chickpea Salad, you will need the following ingredients:

My sister and I joined this website a while back and since then our stomachs have always been satisfied!
This was delicious and simple to make thanks.
Very tasty loved this salad a lot more than the black bean and corn.
Chickpeas and corn are the best combo for a salad, so tasty.
Wasn't a fan of the lime in this salad makes it too zesty/sour for my mouth.
Vegan salad!!! Love love LOVED it i'm so happy to see more and more vegan meals on this website.
Ooo this was so freaking good absolutely worth making more than once.
It was alright not as tasty as the tomato salad and corn polenta, that one was more juicy compared to this.
Great thanks for this recipe I made it as an appetizer before lunch which was some tandori chicken :)
Brought this to work with me today for lunch and it was super refreshing.
The best summer picnic salad!
