Ingredients

- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 1 clove garlic, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- freshly ground black pepper to taste
- 2 cups shredded carrots
- 1 (14 ounce) can chickpeas (garbanzo beans), drained and rinsed
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
- 2 tablespoons chopped white onion
Directions
Step 1
Whisk olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, cumin, salt, and black pepper together in a bowl until dressing is smooth. Add carrots, chickpeas, parsley, and onion; toss to coat.
Recipe Tips
