Instructions
  1. Drain and rinse chickpeas.
  2. Chop your peppers, tomato, and cucumber, and toss them in a bowl.
  3. Combine all dressing ingredients in a separate container and either shake or whisk to incorporate. Pour over salad and toss to combine.
  4. Pop the bowl in the fridge, covered, for a few hours to let the fabulous flavors of the marinade get better acquainted with your veggies or enjoy right away.
  5. Peel and chop avocado just before serving, and add to the salad. I like to toss my avocado in a little lemon juice with a drizzle of olive oil to prevent it from browning.
