Indulgent hearty salad

This salad has it all - sweet, sour, salty, protein, greens and creamy! It's a bit like a pasta salad without the pasta. So a chick pea salad. There you go. Can't type. Eating.

1 400g can of chick peas, 
Large handful green beans, steamed but al dente
200g cherry or grape tomatoes
1small red capsicum/bell pepper
A quarter of a large cucumber
1 spring onion
1 sprig mint
avocado
A dash of strawberry or red wine vinegar
Pepper
1TBS nads' homemade homegrown Rhubarb chutney (optional)
 
Use half the avocado mashed to mix with the vinegar, pepper and chutney as the dressing. 

Chop tomatoes in half, beans into bite sized pieces and dice cucumber, capsicum and other half of the avocado. Combine with washed chick peas and finely diced mint and spring onion.




It was so good we ate it before taking a photo. Maybe next time.
