Asparagus & Snap Pea Salad
Making large salads like these are my favorite way to meal prep, you can throw them in with mixed greens or serve alongside any protein. I found it much easier to opt for something healthier when I prep 1-2 of these salads and have handy in the fridge. Plus, they’re easily transportable so great for travel or packing for a lunch.

2C asparagus, blanched + chopped

Prepare my Chili Roasted Chickpeas and set aside.
Blanch asparagus and peas by brining a large pot of water to a boil. Add veggies for 60 seconds then immediately remove from heat, strain, and place under cold running water or in a large bowl filled with ice water.
In a large mixing bowl, combine veggies, oil, spices, and lemon juice and toss until well coated.
Fold in the chickpeas and top with feta cheese to taste.
