This is sort of a cross between a Fattoush and Greek Salad. For extra dressing, simply double the ingredients.For Salad:
6 Roma -a.k.a.- Plum Tomatoes (chop into medium chunks)
3 Cucumbers (chop into medium chunks)
1 Green Bell Pepper (chopped)
1 Cup Fresh Parsley (chopped)
1 Cup Pitted Kalamata Olives
15 oz Can of Chickpeas (drained & rinsed)
For Tahini Dressing:
1 Lemon
1/4 Cup Tahini (Sesame Seed Paste)
1/4 Cup Water (plus 2 TB water)
1/2 tsp Salt
2 Garlic Cloves (crushed)
You can use a "Garlic Press" to crush the garlic cloves. I didn't have this tool on hand, so I chopped the garlic and used the bottom of a drinking glass to crush them in a bowl. Mix the tahini, water, salt, crushed garlic and squeezed lemon juice until smooth. Toss salad ingredients and dressing into large salad bowl.
