PREPARATIONS

  1. Finely chop the red cabbage. Chop the tomatoes, cucumber, celery, bell peppers, radish, red onion, and carrots. Roughly chop the herbs and add everything to a large mixing bowl.
  2. Rinse and drain the chickpeas, then add them to the bowl along with the pomegranate seeds.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together the red wine vinegar, olive oil, honey, salt, oregano, parsley, and black pepper until well combined.
  4. Pour the dressing over the salad and toss thoroughly until everything is evenly coated.

For deeper flavor, allow the salad to sit for 10–15 minutes before serving, or refrigerate for a few hours to let the vegetables fully absorb the dressing.
