In a large bowl, combine the chickpeas, onion, cucumber, pepper, tomatoes, parsley, garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, and salt. Toss to mix.

(1 1\/2 ounces) feta cheese over the salad. It will increase the fat only slightly, to about 4 grams per serving.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
