1
Prepare the Vegetables
Wash the tomatoes and cucumber thoroughly under cold running water. Remove the stems from the tomatoes, and chop them into bite-sized pieces. Peel the cucumber, slice it in half lengthwise, and then chop into half-moon shapes.
2
Rinse the Chickpeas
If using canned chickpeas, drain and rinse them under cold water to remove excess salt and preservatives. If using dried chickpeas, cook them until tender according to package instructions.

3
Combine Ingredients
In a large bowl, combine the chopped tomatoes, cucumber, and rinsed chickpeas. Mix gently to combine all ingredients evenly.
4
Make the Dressing
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, red wine vinegar, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
5
Dress the Salad
Pour the dressing over the salad mixture. Toss gently to coat all ingredients with the dressing.
6
Serve the Salad
Transfer the salad to a large serving platter or bowl. Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 30 minutes before serving.
