    *Disclaimer - This recipe was originally published in 2014. I'm working hard to update all my older recipes with recipe cards, new photos, and additional recipe information. But, getting to all of them will take time. Please bear with me. In the meantime let me assure you that this recipe is still a winner and one I'm sure you'll be well pleased with when you make it at home.

    If you were challenged to come up with a recipe that featured the three main ingredients of spinach, chickpeas, and pepper (any sort) what do you think you would come up with? It's a tough one. I know.


    I came up with this recipe for Spinach, Chickpea, and Red Pepper Salad with Asian Cashew Dressing and I think it's a pretty darned good one (if I do say so myself)!

    Save this for later.

    We'll email this post to you, so you can come back to it later!

    The chickpeas provide the healthy protein your body needs, the veggies taste bright and lively, and the Asian Cashew Dressing is deliciously nutty with a hint of sweetness.
