High Protein Spicy Turkish Chickpea Salad, Nohut Piyazi
Piyaz, usually a name for a salad with beans in Turkish cuisine, is adopted from the Persian word, (फ़ारसी) meaning onions. This version with the chickpeas is called “Nohut Piyazi”, meaning “Piyaz with Chickpeas”.
One of the best things about Nohut Piyazı is its versatility – you can use a variety of vegetables to suit your taste, and it's easy to adjust the recipe to make it spicier or milder. It's also perfect for a light lunch or dinner, or as a side dish to accompany grilled meats or fish.
Whether you're a vegan looking for new meal ideas or just want to try something new and delicious, you won't want to miss this easy and tasty Turkish dish. Give Nohut Piyazı a try and let me know what you think in the comments!

How To Make Vegan Thai Rice Salad - Best Tips & Tricks
1. Adapt this simple rice salad recipe to your taste
I made this vegan rice salad with a mix of wild and brown rice. I think this is the best combo because it’s the healthier version of rice and it also has a better texture and nutty flavor.
Brown rice has a much healthier nutrient content than its white version and it’s richer in fiber, vitamins and minerals. So I definitely recommend it but I also understand that it may not always be easily available.
In this case, you can replace it with white rice. Or, you could go for the even healthier options like quinoa, barley, buckwheat or bulgur.
Moving on to the veggies, you can go for any kind you like. Just think about the texture when choosing the veggies and keep in mind to chop them into small bite-sized pieces.
If you want this Thai rice salad to have a crunchy texture, you can make it with peppers, carrots or cabbage.
And if Kale is not easily available you can replace it with baby spinach or romaine salad.
Furthermore, I made this vegan rice salad with cashew because I love their sweet and delicate flavor. But you can replace them with pecans, almonds, chopped hazelnuts or walnuts.
Now that you know how to adapt this Thai rice salad recipe to your taste, let’s see how to serve it.
2. How to serve this vegan rice salad
This Thai rice salad is perfect as a main but you can also serve it as a side-dish. It goes great with many dishes like Mozzarella Chicken or Chicken Lasagna.
Of course, it won’t be vegan anymore and if that’s not a problem, then you can add it some grilled chicken or hard boiled eggs.
This way, it will be more nourishing if served as a main.
And if you want it even more filling but still vegan, you can add fried tofu or baked chickpeas.
This vegan rice salad goes perfectly for lunch and dinner. Furthermore, it fits in a lunch box, which means it’s great for meal planning.
3. This simple rice salad recipe is perfect for meal planning.
This simple rice salad recipe is great for your weekly meal prep. You can make it ahead and place it in airtight containers, then keep it in the fridge for up to 5 days.
But there’s something very important to remember here. Keep the salad and dressing in separate containers and only mix them before serving. Don’t mix them before otherwise, the salad will get soggy.
So that’s about it with the tips and tricks. You’re now more than ready to make this simple rice salad recipe.
And you know the drill, don’t you? After making it, snap a shot, post it on Instagram and tag me @theblondelish and use the hashtag #blondelish so I can see what you make of my recipes.

CHICKPEA QUINOA RICE Recipe ???? Healthy Vegan Quinoa and Basmati Fried Rice in Minutes!
The sights, sounds, and aromas from the kitchen are a source of comfort and good memories for many of us.
➡️ So, I invite you into our kitchen so I can share a simple quinoa recipe that can hopefully be a source of not only good food but also comfort for you too!
Join me as I show you how to create a healthy vegan fried rice dish.
The two main ingredients, basmati rice, and quinoa will fill your kitchen with a nutty and floral fragrance.
➡️ The rapid simmer of little bubbles and the clink of the cover on the top of the pot means that dinner is on its way.
The mix of sauteed carrots, chickpeas, onion, spices and a squeeze of lemon juice will stew and blend their flavors, all that’s left is to decorate with parsley and enjoy!
???? What variety of rice would you consider substituting for basmati? Let me know in the comments below!
▶️ RECIPE INGREDIENTS: (3 servings approx.)
1/2 cup / 95g - Quinoa (soaked for 30 minutes)
1/2 cup / 100g - white BASMATI Rice (soaked for 30 minutes)
2 cups/1 can(540ml) - Cooked chickpeas
3 tablespoons - Olive Oil
1cup / 130g - Onion (finely chopped)
1 cup / 150g - Carrot - (cut into small cubes)
1 +1/2 cup / 360ml - Vegetable Broth (low sodium)
Salt to taste (I have added total 1 teaspoon of Pink Himalayan salt)
1/4 teaspoon - Cayenne pepper (Optional)
1 tablespoon - Lemon Juice or to taste
1/3 cup/ 20g - Parsley - finely chopped
▶️ METHOD:
Wash the quinoa and basmati rice thoroughly until the water runs clear and then let is soak in water for 30 minutes.
To a heated pan added olive oil, onion, carrot, 1/4 teaspoon salt and fry on medium heat until the onion and carrot starts to caramelized. Adding salt to onion/carrot will release it's moisture and help it cook faster so please don’t skip it.
Add the soaked/drained quinoa, rice and cooked chickpeas, along with vegetable broth, salt and cayenne pepper (please note cayenne pepper is optional). Bring to a rapid simmer. Then reduce the heat to lowest point in your stove and cover and cook for about 20 minutes or until the quinoa rice is cooked. Once cooked turn off the heat and uncover. Add the lemon juice, parsley and mix very gently, the rice is very delicate at this point and we don't want to break it. Check for seasoning and add salt if needed.
Cover and let it sit for 5 minutes before serving (for flavors to blend). Serve with your favourite curry.
▶️ IMPORTANT TIPS:
- Thoroughly wash the quinoa/rice, this will get rid of any impurities/gunk/bitterness and will give a much better and clean taste
- Adding salt to onion/carrot will release it's moisture and will help it cook faster so please don’t skip this step
- After adding the garnish, mix everything very gently then cover the pot and let it sit for 5 minutes before serving - for the flavors to blend
- This recipe uses white basmati rice
