I made this for the first time when I was in college. It was a “throw together” meal of sorts. Ever since then, I can’t stop making it.
The meaty chickpeas, sweet and crunchy corn, soft artichokes, and the tart lemon juice all merry together so well. It’s oddly addicting. Oh and I can’t forget about the parsley either! It gives this salad a nice fresh flavor.
Yum… I want a bowl right now!
