Got the lunchtime indecision blues? Try this super simple yet super scrumptious salad! Lots of great flavors and textures with only a few ingredients. I love to roast my chickpeas, but you can definitely skip that step if you’re short on time or just plain not into it.
Easy Tahini Romaine Salad
This quick salad will fill you up when lunch needs to happen FAST!

Notes
*You don't have to roast your chickpeas, but I prefer the texture that way.
This can also serve 4 as a side salad.
