Perfetta per i barbecue estivi o i pranzi condivisi, questa facile e rinfrescante insalata in stile greco con cetrioli, ceci e carciofi è un ottimo contorno per chi non ama pomodori e olive, ma desidera comunque i sapori freschi e deliziosi di un’insalata greca. Senza glutine, vegetariana, a basso contenuto di carboidrati e attenta ai FODMAP (ricca di fruttosio ma povera di altri tipi di FODMAP — vedi note), con semplici opzioni senza latticini e vegane.
