Ingredients
  

1 cup canned chickpeas, rinsed and drained

1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

1 cucumber, diced

½ red onion, finely chopped

1 cup Kalamata olives, pitted and sliced

1 cup feta cheese, crumbled

½ cup bell peppers (red or yellow), diced

¼ cup fresh parsley, chopped

½ teaspoon dried oregano

¼ cup extra virgin olive oil

2 tablespoons red wine vinegar

Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

Prepare the dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, red wine vinegar, dried oregano, salt, and pepper until well combined. Set aside.

    Layer the ingredients: In 4 clean mason jars, start layering your salad. Begin with the chickpeas at the bottom to prevent them from becoming mushy.

      Add tomatoes: Next, add a layer of halved cherry tomatoes over the chickpeas.

        Include cucumbers and onions: Follow with the diced cucumber and chopped red onion.

          Olives and bell peppers: Add sliced Kalamata olives and diced bell peppers on top of the onion layer.

            Feta and parsley: Sprinkle crumbled feta cheese and chopped parsley on top of the layers.

              Finish with dressing: Drizzle the prepared dressing evenly over the top of each jar.

                Seal and refrigerate: Close the mason jars with their lids and store them in the refrigerator until ready to serve. Shake well before eating to mix all the ingredients and dressing.
