This vegan curried chickpea salad comes together quickly but brings plenty to the table. Chickpeas add protein and fiber, while celery, red pepper, and onion bring crunch. The creamy curry dressing adds warmth and a little sweetness without overpowering everything else. Fresh coriander finishes the salad and helps brighten the flavor.
The recipe only takes a few minutes to prepare, but it does a lot. Spoon it into sandwiches or wraps, serve it with crackers, or pile it onto baked potatoes for lunch. Summer BBQs, picnics, and potlucks also suit this dish well because it travels easily and tastes good straight from the fridge. You can even make it the night before if needed.

Romy London keeps things practical here. Chickpeas bring texture alongside plant protein and fiber, which helps turn a simple salad into something more filling. The mix of creamy dressing and crisp vegetables also keeps every bite interesting.
