Chickpea Caesar Salad

This salad came out of combining bits and pieces together but the recipe absolutely works. This is a light and super easy salad to make compared to regular caesar salad that is drowned in oil and has fried chicken on top. Instead, swapping the lettuce for kale adds more micronutrients and chickpeas add crunch, flavour and of course protein. Everything is topped with a super easy and creamy cashew dressing that makes this salad next level good.
