In a large mixing bowl, drain and rinse one can of chickpeas, then add them to the bowl. Dice half an English cucumber, chop two Roma tomatoes, and finely slice a quarter of a red onion. Toss in a handful of freshly chopped parsley. Mix these vibrant ingredients together gently.

In a liquid measuring cup, combine 1/4 cup of extra virgin olive oil with the juice of one fresh lemon. Add one clove of minced garlic and one teaspoon of Italian seasoning. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Whisk the dressing until it's well blended.

Pour the prepared dressing over the combined salad ingredients in the bowl. Using a spatula or large spoon, gently toss everything together until uniformly coated.

Taste the salad and adjust the seasoning with more salt, pepper, or lemon juice if necessary, then give it another gentle toss.

Serve immediately for optimum freshness, or chill before serving. Enjoy!
