Last week you guys all gave some great ideas for healthy, easy lunches and since we're still on the topic (well I am, at least) I wanted to share a recipe for Chickpea, Tomato, and Feta Salad that user wren posted in the Healthy Recipes Group. Not only is this recipe healthy, but it's also super easy because it requires no cooking.
For the recipe just read more.
This refreshing recipe is so simple to make and fills me up. I love to have it for lunch.
From Martha Stewart's Everyday Food.
1/4 cup canned chickpeas
1/2 cup quartered cherry tomatoes
1/4 cup crumbled feta
1 tbsp. fresh lemon juice
2 tsp. olive oil
1 tsp. dried oregano
1/8 tsp. salt
ground pepper
Rinse and drain chickpeas.
In a bowl, combine chickpeas with tomatoes, feta, lemon juice, olive oil, oregano, salt, and a pinch of pepper.

yum i think i have a few cans of chickpeas at home!
1Yum yum yum
!!!
2I hate tomatos!
3Looks good!
4Yummy. For myself, I would omit the feta cheese. I don't like cheese anymore.
5This looks really good. Yummy!
6I swear I made this two days ago - and I add some green onions too
7can't wait to try this
8yum! I got this recipe this month from my Everyday Cooking magazine and have made it every week since! Its very tasty.
9Hey this looks great, and to take the dairy out, the Skinny B_tch in the Kitch book has a great vegan feta recipe. You can add that to this salad. Delicious!
10Yum! I want to try this one!
11This looks pretty yummy, but I'd use fresh mozzarella instead of feta (Feta's too salty for me).
12yum...can't wait to try this!
13Anything with tomatos and feta has got to be great!
14Could you PLEASE make this "Healthy Lunch Ideas" a regular feature? Honestly, it would be SO helpful, as Progresso soups tend to get old after awhile. Thanks!
15i agree with Hill82879, I would love to have regular healthy lunch options, that dont take hours to make. also, it would be great if most were vegetarian.. hehe
16I make this all the time, except I don't eat tomatoes so I just omit them! I make this with black beans as well.
17sounds fabulous!
18i made this last night! very good... i'm eating some right now too
19i feel like it might be better with some fresh greens like parsley maybe... but very good!
what about eating healthy if you have high blood pressure. what are some good food too eat?
20could you post a good nutrisitonst in los angeles ca thanks.....
21hehe, i too got this recipe about a year ago in my everyday cooking magazine and have made it about weekly since then, it's sooo good!
oh, actually this one is a smidge different, mine didn't have oregano and also has a few crisp pita strips, baked in the oven.
22This is a GREAT recipe! I like to eat it on top of greens. Its perfect and no need for dressing at all. I can't wait to get invited to a pot luck so I can make it for everyone! Good stuff makes me want to share it! lol
