Have you tried kalejunkie MIDDLE EASTERN-STYLE BALELA SALAD yet? If not, and you are seeing this on your feed, consider it a SIGN! I personally think it’s even more delicious than cowboy caviar!
If you are new to Balela, it is a middle eastern chickpea and bean salad filled with lots of fresh herbs and a tangy dressing. It’s my absolute favorite! There are many different versions of Balela, this one just happens to be mine.
You can serve this with chips or in pita pockets, wraps, romaine lettuce leaves or just eat it straight from the bowl.
This is also a fantastic salad to meal prep because there’s no lettuce so it doesn’t get soggy, and the flavors get better and better every day!
