Ingredients
- 1 can chickpeas drained and rinsed
- 10 oz deli turkey, chicken or ham
- 2 oz salami
- ¼ cup pepperoncini chopped
- 1 teaspoon calabrian chilies optional
- ¼ cup sun dried tomatoes optional
- ½ head lettuce chopped
- ⅓ cup red onion diced
- ⅓ cup cherry tomatoes diced
- 1 handful fresh basil chopped
- ¼ cup italian dressing
- potato chips for serving
Instructions
- Drain and rinse the 1 can chickpeas well, then pat them dry if you'd like a less watery bowl.
- Chop the 10 oz deli turkey, chicken or ham, 2 oz salami, ¼ cup pepperoncini, ½ head lettuce, ⅓ cup red onion, ⅓ cup cherry tomatoes and 1 handful fresh basil to roughly the same bite-sized pieces. Add everything to a large bowl along with the chickpeas, 1 tsp calabrian chilies and ¼ cup sun dried tomatoes.
- Add the ¼ cup italian dressing and toss to combine. Start with a little less than you think you need and add more to taste.
- Taste and adjust. The pepperoncini and salami are both salty, so you may not need extra salt.
- Serve with potato chips for scooping.

Notes
Make it vegetarian: Leave out the deli meat and salami and add a second can of chickpeas or some mozzarella pearls.
Dress it later: If making ahead, keep the lettuce and dressing separate until serving.
Storage: Fridge up to 2 days in an airtight container with dressing or 4 without.
