Nutrient-Packed: Full of fiber, healthy fats, and plant-based protein.

Flavorful & Versatile: Pairs beautifully with grilled proteins, pasta, or as a light standalone lunch.

Make-Ahead Friendly: Even better when chilled for a few hours.

What You’ll Need (Ingredient Highlights)

Cherry Tomatoes – Sweet and juicy, halved for a burst of freshness.

Marinated Artichoke Hearts – Adds tangy depth and texture.

Chickpeas – A great source of protein that makes this salad hearty.

Red Onion – Thinly sliced for a crisp bite.

Fresh Basil & Chives – Brings in herbaceous, summery flavor.

Capers – Tiny but mighty, they punch up the briny richness.

Tuscan Vinaigrette – A simple blend of olive oil, vinegar, garlic, and herbs.

Pro Tips Before You Start

Dry Chickpeas Thoroughly: This prevents extra moisture and lets the vinaigrette coat everything properly.

Use Marinated Artichokes: Not canned in water—they add so much more flavor.

Let it Chill: For deeper flavor, refrigerate for 1–2 hours before serving.

How to Make Tuscan Artichoke Tomato Salad

Step 1 – Prep the vegetables and herbs
Cut cherry tomatoes in half, thinly slice red onion, finely chop chives, and chiffonade the basil.

Drain the artichokes and rinse + dry the chickpeas.

Step 2 – Make the vinaigrette
In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, red wine vinegar, dried parsley, garlic powder (or minced garlic), salt, and black pepper.

Step 3 – Combine everything
In a large salad bowl, add the tomatoes, onion, herbs, artichokes, chickpeas, and capers.

Pour the vinaigrette over top and toss gently to combine.

Step 4 – Serve or chill
Serve immediately for freshness, or chill for 1–2 hours for a more developed flavor.

What to Serve It With

Grilled chicken, steak, or shrimp

Garlic toast or crusty sourdough

Chilled pasta salad or quinoa bowls

A light white wine or sparkling lemonade

Variations / Substitutions

Add Cheese – Feta or mozzarella pearls pair perfectly.

Swap Beans – Cannellini beans work great in place of chickpeas.

Add Crunch – Toss in toasted pine nuts or sunflower seeds.

Storage & Leftovers

Fridge: Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.

Meal Prep Tip: Keep the vinaigrette separate until ready to eat if storing long-term.

FAQs

Can I use canned artichoke hearts in water?
Yes, but marinated artichokes give more flavor.

Drain them well and season the salad a bit more if needed.

Is this salad vegan?
Yes! It’s naturally vegan and gluten-free.

Can I make this in advance?
Absolutely. It tastes even better after resting in the fridge for an hour or two.

Final Thoughts

This Tuscan Artichoke Tomato Salad is sunshine in a bowl—light, zesty, and full of texture.

It’s one of those effortless dishes that looks impressive yet requires minimal effort.

Keep it in your summer rotation and share it at your next picnic or potluck—it’s sure to disappear fast!
