When you’re craving a delicious and easy make-ahead lunch, turn to the chicks. That is, chickpeas or chicken. Use either (or both!) to craft this flavorful sandwich filler that also makes a savory cracker topper or even a side dish.
Yes, it’s that versatile! And because it’s made with Greek yogurt, it’s got two protein sources in one recipe. Could we call this the jack of all salads? Yes, we shall.
