Simply opening a tin of chickpeas is the first step in our next vegetable salad, which is wonderfully crunchy and garlic-y. Be careful not to dress this salad too early. Salt draws water from the cabbage and you don’t want a puddle of juice at the bottom. Leave to dress right before serving. Saying that, any leftovers can be stored overnight for lunch boxes. Add some feta and a piece of chicken on top for some extra protein and, voila, a tasty lunch.
