I’m so glad to hear it. 🙂 The texture is definitely best when the salad is fresh, so once it’s frozen be prepared for everything to be a bit softer. It also depends on how fresh your veggies are when you make it. If they’re already overripe, freezing will give you less than ideal results. Hope this helps!

Question – you state that it can be frozen? Really? That would be awesome but what is the texture like? Thanks!

Freezing: as with most high water content fruits and veggies, once frozen, the texture can be less crispy and, honestly, a bit on the soggy side. 😉 For the best texture, I recommend eating this chickpea salad fresh, but you gotta do what you gotta do. 😉
