I've been looking to add more protein to my vegetarian diet, without resorting to paneer or tofu. Beans and lentils are a good option, so I made myself a chickpea salad for lunch at the office. But I was tired of the regular olive oil dressing and decided to try out tahini sauce which I love, and which adds to the protein content anyway. Turns out it's a marriage made in heaven!
Chickpea salad:
Half cup boiled chick peas
Half cup cherry tomatoes, halved
Handful of lettuce leaves, washed and torn
Capsicum - quarter each of green, red and yellow, diced
Spring onion - 1, along with the greens, chopped fine
1 Kakdi, cut into half vertically and sliced
Tahini dressing:
Half cup hung curd
Half cup regular curd
1 tablespoon tahini
1-2 green chillies
Pinch of salt
1 tsp sugar/ honey
Grind together all the ingredients - except the regular curd. Taste to ensure a balance between salt and sweet. Just before serving, mix the regular curd with the rest of the dressing and pour over the salad. Mix well and enjoy with a virtuous halo of wellness!

You could use sprouted chickpea for higher nutrition and protein and in general more 'life' ��
Steeping dried leaves and drinking tea dates back thousands of years. It is thought to originate in China, where it was used medicinally. Today, people drink tea for many reasons, including its taste, stimulating, or calming properties, and health benefits. One popular herbal tea is nettle tea.

This chickpea salad looks delicious! I always struggle to find good vegetarian protein sources besides paneer and tofu. I’ll have to try this for my lunch prep

Tahini and chickpeas are such a great combo! I’ve only ever used tahini in hummus, but this dressing sounds perfect for salads too. Can’t wait to try!

Using both hung and regular curd in the dressing is a unique idea! Does it make the dressing creamier

I’d never thought of adding kakdi to my salad. It must add a nice crunch. Definitely trying this out for lunch tomorrow

The tahini dressing sounds fantastic! I don’t usually like plain olive oil dressings either, so this is a perfect alternative. Love it

Would this recipe work well for meal prepping? I’m wondering if I could keep the dressing separate and mix it in when I’m ready to eat.
