Have you ever had a savory yogurt salad? I hadn’t either… It might sound weird, but TRUST ME this is good. Plus it was a good excuse to use even more of my five-minute chimichurri sauce<\/a>!<\/i><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’m not gonna lie, I’m not a massive salad fan. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

More often than not, salad is just bland, I mean, leaves can only have so much flavor. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This salad is not like those salads. This is PACKED with flavor! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Using yogurt as a salad base sounded really weird to me at first, but when I thought about it, yogurt itself (the proper unsweetened kind) really doesn’t have much of a tendency towards sweetness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is quite easily adapted to fit savory flavors as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It provides a hearty, creamy base which is the perfect compliment to my five-minute chimichurri sauce. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Seriously, since I made this sauce last week, I’ve been putting it on everything I can! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It really is ready in 5 minutes (or even less if you’re a fast chopper!) and it packs such a punch. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This salad has everything when it comes to texture, from the creaminess of the yogurt to the crunchiness of the chickpeas and the zinginess of the chimichurri sauce. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I love eating it smothered on slices of crispy bread, when you get a bit of everything on there, it’s just amazing! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This salad would be perfect for breakfast, lunch or dinner! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Do you have a favorite salad recipe?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
