This is not your average salad, it’s crunchy, spicy, juicy and so delicious! This is a great salad to travel with, loaded with lots of healthy fiber and protein from the chickpeas, healthy fats from the olives and mozzarella and of course the extra zip from the diced pepperoncinis. I love prepping this salad for easy no-fuss lunches or impressing my friends with it at a barbecue.
