Fattoush with Pan-Fried Chickpeas
and creamy tahini dressing

Active: 30 Total: 30

We first featured this entree salad in 2015 and have been excited to bring it back as it continues to get great reviews from our community. The variety of textures and flavors make every bite as satisfying as it is unique.
Smarts: Be sure to add the pita chips right before serving so they retain some crunch.
