Zucchini, Chickpea and Tomato Salad

A bright, no-cook salad of raw diced zucchini, juicy tomatoes, creamy chickpeas and salty feta tossed in a lemon‑olive oil dressing with fresh mint.

Crunchy zucchini, juicy tomatoes, creamy chickpeas and salty feta give this salad a satisfying combination of flavors and textures. The zucchini is raw, but diced small enough to gently soften in the simple dressing of lemon, olive oil and fresh mint. The salad can be assembled far ahead of time, but wait to dress it until you are ready to serve -- this prevents the veggies from getting soggy. Serve it as a side to any meal, stuffed into a pita, or even scooped up with crunchy pita chips.
