# How to Make It:
01 - Preheat oven to 400°F. Pat chickpeas dry with paper towels. Toss with olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, and salt. Spread evenly on a baking sheet and roast for 20 minutes, shaking halfway through, until golden and crispy. Remove and allow to cool completely.
02 - In a food processor, pulse pistachios until finely chopped. Add Greek yogurt, parsley, basil, tarragon, lemon juice, garlic clove, olive oil, water, salt, and black pepper. Blend until creamy and smooth, adding additional water as needed to reach desired consistency. Taste and adjust seasonings.
03 - In a large bowl, combine romaine lettuce, spinach, cucumber, cherry tomatoes, and chives. Drizzle with pistachio dressing and toss thoroughly to coat all ingredients evenly.
04 - Top the dressed salad with diced avocado and crispy chickpeas. Serve immediately while chickpeas remain crispy.
