This Chickpea Lime Spinach Salad Recipe came from one of our fans, Cheryl Tennant Hopkins when I asked for a good potluck recipe this weekend. I took it to our potluck dinner and everyone, I mean everyone loved it! Thanks, Cheryl! One lady said she has never liked chickpeas and she had 2 servings! Actually, several people had second helpings.
I like that this recipe has a lot of flavor and is still on the healthy side! This recipe is easy.
