Preparation
Roast the chickpeas & broccoli
- Preheat the oven to 450°F.
- Drain and rinse the chickpeas; pat dry.
- In a medium bowl, combine the broccoli (halve if large), a drizzle of oil, ⅓ of the spices and S&P.
- On a lined sheet pan, toss the chickpeas with a drizzle of oil, ½ the remaining spices and S&P.
- Add the broccoli and roast, stirring halfway, 18 to 20 min., until the chickpeas are crisp and the broccoli is tender.
Cook the bulgur
- Meanwhile, in a medium pot, combine the bulgur, ¾ cup water (double for 4 portions), the remaining spices and a pinch of salt; bring to a boil.

- Thinly slice the cucumbers crosswise.
- In a large bowl, combine the baby greens, cucumbers, radishes, a drizzle of oil and S&P.
