If you are like me and wish you could order Cava every day then this is the salad for you. Copycat Cava salad is gluten-free, dairy-free, and an easy healthy customizable lunch or dinner.
protein of choice (chicken, chicken sausage, meatballs, shrimp, or tofu)
feta cheese (vegan or regular)
tahini dressing
salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
Boil water as directed on the package of your chickpea rice and cook chickpea rice as directed
Finely chop romaine lettuce
Top romaine with a serving of cooked chickpea rice
Add 2-3 warm veggies (leftover or freshly roasted, sautéed, or steamed veggies) I like to use green beans, carrots, broccoli, asparagus, or brussels but any veggie you like will work
Then add a source of protein (chicken, chicken sausage, meatballs, shrimps, really anything goes)
Next, add cheese (optional), and something crunchy like roasted chickpeas, love corn, croutons, or even broken up gluten-free crackers
Drizzle on a tahini dressing I love a homemade creamy vegan caesar tahini or Trader Joe’s has a vegan caesar dressing that is so tasty!
