This kale salad with peaches, crispy chickpeas, and lemon tahini dressing is the ultimate summer-to-fall salad. Ready in 20 minutes and perfect for lunch or meal prep!
Drain, rinse, and pat dry the chickpeas. Optional: toss with a little olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Add to the air fryer and cook at 400°F for about 20 minutes, shaking the basket every 5–10 minutes until golden and crispy.
Add the chopped kale to a big bowl with a squeeze of lemon and use your hands to gently massage for 1–2 minutes, until soft and tender.
Whisk together the tahini, lemon juice, honey/maple syrup, dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Add water 1 tablespoon at a time until it’s pourable and creamy.
Add the kale to a bowl and toss with the dressing. Top with crispy chickpeas, sliced peaches, and crumbled vegan feta. Enjoy!
Notes
Massage the kale well to soften it and cut any bitterness. This is a game-changer tip!
Don't have an air fryer? Roast the chickpeas at the same temperature and bake time until golden and crispy.
