This vibrant and refreshing salad combines chickpeas, corn, and fresh vegetables with a tangy and flavorful dressing, perfect for any occasion.
In a large bowl, combine the chickpeas, corn, diced red onion, grated carrot, and chopped celery.
Ensure the vegetables are evenly chopped for a consistent texture.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, smoked paprika, apple cider vinegar, white vinegar, minced garlic, dry mustard, salt, sugar, and black pepper.
Whisk the dressing until fully emulsified for a smooth consistency.
Pour the dressing over the salad and toss to combine thoroughly.
Mix gently to avoid mashing the chickpeas.
Cover the salad and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
For best results, let the salad chill for 2-3 hours.
Serve the salad chilled, garnished with fresh herbs if desired. Enjoy!
Add a sprinkle of fresh parsley or cilantro for a burst of color and flavor.
