This protein- and fiber-rich salad is a great make-ahead option, as the flavours only get better the longer the salad sits; you can toss it together up to two days in advance. The chickpea pasta and canned chickpeas offer nutty undertones, while canned artichoke hearts, capers, and a perky vinaigrette provide briny high notes.
