Mediterranean Kale Salad with Hummus Dressing

INGREDIENTS:

FOR THE HUMMUS DRESSING:

• 1/3 cup Sabra Classic Hummus
• 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
• 1-2 teaspoons water, depending on how thick you like it
• Salt and black pepper, to taste

FOR THE SALAD:

• 1 large bunch kale, ribs removed and finely chopped 
• 1 (14 oz) can chickpeas, rinsed and drained
• 1 cup halved grape tomatoes
• 1 red bell pepper, seeds removed and chopped
• 1/2 cup chopped cucumber
• 1/2 cup chopped artichoke hearts
• 1/3 cup pitted kalamata olives
• 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese
• 1/2 cup pita chips
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil

DIRECTIONS:

1. First make the hummus dressing. In a small bowl or jar, combine the hummus, olive oil, lemon juice, and balsamic vinegar. Whisk until smooth and season with salt and pepper, to taste. If the dressing is too thick, add a little bit of water until it reaches your desired consistency. Set aside while you make the salad.
2. In a large bowl, add the kale, chickpeas, tomatoes, red pepper, cucumber, artichoke hearts, olives, feta cheese, pita chips, and basil. Drizzle with hummus dressing and toss. Serve immediately.
