+title: Chana Salad
+servings: 6
+category: side
+source: OCR
+description: I think my mom lied to me about this chana salaad. She said it was junk food so I would eat it, but now that I'm older I know better. After all, it's chickpeas and vegetables! But I'm glad my mom said whatever it took at time to get me to eat it, because I love this salad. It is perfect for summer and is easy to make. Serve it as a side salad or as a main dish for a vegan meal. Adjust cayenne as desired for your heat preference. SERVES 6
