Ingredients

  • ½ cup olive oil extra virgin
  • 3 tbsp red wine vinegar
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tbsp stone ground mustard
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • 1 pinch of salt and pepper
  • 1 can chickpeas drained and rinsed
  • 4 cups Brussels sprouts shaved or chopped, discard the woody stems at the bottom
  • ½ red onion chopped
  • ½ cup salami julienned
  • cup cherry tomatoes chopped
  • ¼ cup cucumber chopped
  • ¼ cup mozzarella cubed
  • ¼ cup provolone julienned

Instructions

  • Make the dressing by combining the olive oil, red wine vinegar, honey, lemon juice, stone ground mustard, Italian seasoning, and salt and pepper in a mason jar. Shake until it’s emulsified. (Or you can whisk it together).
  • Drain and rinse the Chickpeas, then toss them with 2 tbsp of dressing. Set aside to marinate while you prepare and assemble the rest of the salad.
  • To a large bowl, add the chopped (or shaved) brussels sprouts, red onion, salami, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, mozzarella, and provolone cheese. Top with the marinated chickpeas.
  • Toss everything together and serve with the rest of the dressing on the side.

Notes

Leftover salad can be saved in an airtight container in the fridge for about 2 days.  Keep the dressing separate so that it doesn't get soggy!
