  • 1 bunch celery thinly sliced
  • 1 can 15 oz chickpeas, drained and rinsed
  • 1/3 cup crumbled feta cheese plus extra for garnish

  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 1 small shallot peeled
  • 1 tbsp red wine vinegar
  • 1/2 cup olive oil
  • Salt and black pepper to taste

Method
 

  1. In a blender, combine dill, lemon juice, garlic, shallot, red wine vinegar, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Blend until smooth and creamy.
  2. In a large bowl, add romaine, cucumbers, celery, chickpeas, avocado, and feta.
  3. Drizzle with the dill dressing and toss gently until everything is coated.
  4. Transfer to a serving dish and sprinkle with extra feta.

Notes

  • For toddlers: Slice celery extra thin and mash chickpeas lightly for easier chewing.
  • Store leftover salad without dressing in the fridge for up to 2 days.
  • Make it vegan by skipping the feta or using a dairy-free option.
