Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup full-fat cottage cheese
  • 1 can (15 oz) chickpeas, drained and rinsed
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • Black pepper, to taste
  • ½ cup finely diced celery
  • ¼ cup finely chopped red onion
  • 3 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

Method
 

  1. Stir together the cottage cheese, lemon juice, salt, and pepper until smooth.
  2. Toss the chickpeas, celery, and red onion in a separate bowl to combine.
  3. Add the cottage cheese mixture and parsley to the chickpea bowl and fold until evenly coated. Serve right away, or chill for 30 minutes first.

Notes

This salad keeps well and actually tastes better after a rest in the fridge. If making ahead, hold back the parsley and stir it in just before serving to keep it bright.
