Kale Salad With Chickpeas In A Jar Recipes

Steps:

• For the crispy chickpeas: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Pat the chickpeas dry with paper towels. Transfer to a bowl. Add the oil, cumin, garlic powder, salt, pepper, cayenne and paprika. Spread the chickpeas in a single layer in a rimmed baking sheet. Bake, stirring once halfway through to promote even browning, until the chickpeas are browned and crispy, about 30 minutes.
• Make the vinaigrette: Whisk together the oil, vinegar, sugar, mustard, salt and pepper.
• Assemble the salads: Pour 2 tablespoons of the dressing into each of two 16-ounce mason jars. Top with the kale, plums, almonds and 1/4 cup crispy chickpeas (reserve the remaining chickpeas for snacking). Seal the lids. Shake the jars to combine just before serving.

Steps:

• For the onions: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Bring the vinegar, sugar and salt to a simmer in a small saucepan over medium-high heat to dissolve the sugar. Place the onions in a small bowl and pour the hot mixture over them. Toss well to coat. Allow to cool to room temperature for 1 hour before using.
• For the chickpeas: Meanwhile, toss the chickpeas with the olive oil, lemon zest, zaatar and salt. Spread on a rimmed baking sheet and roast until golden and crisp, about 30 minutes. Drain well on paper towels.
• For the salad: Place the Tuscan kale in a large bowl. Add 1/4 teaspoon salt and massage the salt into the kale. Add the olive oil, vinegar and remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt. Add 1/2 cup of the onions without their liquid, all of the chickpeas, feta and zaatar. Toss to combine and serve.
