Salads are a staple in our dinners, but many times we find it difficult to give a little versatility to these classic recipes that seem to go no further than lettuce, tomatoes and cheese or tuna. The truth is that you can make a salad in countless ways, also adapting them to the cold months. We have come across a TikTok proposal and we have decided to put it to the test. The result is cinematic because in addition to being a super nutritious dish, it is healthy and very easy to make.
The video that inspired us is this one from the @beelfoodana account, where the protagonists are chickpeas and zucchini, a mixture that seems like a great success to us. It is not necessary to prepare a complex spoon dish to make room for these ingredients in our diet, sometimes the simplest options like this are three times as tasty. Take note!

The step by step of the straight
We start the recipe by cutting the zucchini into thin strips and put it in the pan with a splash of virgin olive oil. We let it brown a little for a few minutes and when it is ready we reserve it in a bowl. The next step is to take a jar of chickpeas and wash them well with the help of a strainer, then we put them in the pan over medium heat with EVOO so that they warm up a little and we add a teaspoon of curry, another of sweet or hot paprika, half of salt and half of pepper.
We continue with the yogurt sauce, mixing in a bowl the natural Greek yogurt, a clove of garlic, the zest and juice of half a lemon, half a tablespoon of herbs, a little salt and a pinch of pepper. We stir well so that the flavors blend little by little and once it is ready, we pour the sauce into a bowl and place the zucchini and chickpeas on top. This way you would be ready to enjoy.
