Hot girl summer salad season is well and truely upon us.


This salad is vegetarian, quick to make and super tasty.


Roasted chickpea, feta and cranberry salad, with a sundried tomato pesto dressing.


These cheeky chickpeas, covered in a cumin and paprika marinade, are the perfect crunch to compliment this salad. They are also the perfect protein replacement for your meal. I always love putting dried fruit into my salads, as they give a lovely chewy texture, to set your mouth on fire. In this dish I used cranberries, which combine perfectly with the crumbled feta cheese.


Give this sexy summer salad a go and let me know what you think of it!
