Middle Eastern Recipes : Salad Recipes

I still remember the moment this recipe entered our kitchen. Jane had just stumbled on a reel while scrolling Facebook, paused for a second, and said, “We have to try this.” It was Moroccan-Spiced Chickpea Salad from Andy’s East Coast Kitchen, and honestly, shout out to Andy because this recipe is the bomb. From the first bite, everything tasted so fresh and bright, like one of those meals that wakes up your whole palate and makes you slow down to enjoy it. It felt effortless but special at the same time, the kind of dish that surprises you by how much flavor it packs into something so simple. What really sealed it for me was watching Jake go back for another helping. He’s usually a meat-and-potatoes kind of guy, but even he admitted this was fresh, delicious, and completely satisfying. This recipe matters to our family because it reminds us that sometimes the best new favorites come from unexpected places and end up bringing everyone happily to the table.
