Storage Tips

Use Glad wrap and refrigerate perishable food as soon as possible to maintain quality and cross-contamination.
Store in a Glad zipper bag and refrigerate perishable food as soon as possible to maintain quality and cross-contamination.
Tip: store the chickpeas separately to help maintain their crunch then assemble the salad just before serving.

Reheat Tips

Serve cold: This salad is best served cold or at room temperature, straight from the fridge. No reheating needed.
For a warm salad variation, reheat the roasted chickpeas in a 375°F oven for 10–12 minutes until warmed through and crispy, then toss with fresh greens and Hidden Valley™ Ranch dressing.
