Instructions
DO AHEAD TIP: Chill Sunny Summer Salad for about 30 minutes before serving if desired.
Zest one of your tangerines into a mixing bowl. Be careful to only use the orange part of the peel as the white part (the pith) is bitter.
Into the same mixing bowl, squeeze in all the juice from zested tangerine. Whisk in the lemon juice and then slowly add the oil. When the oil is mixed in, whisk in the mustard, salt, pepper and thyme.
Section remaining tangerines and add them along with chickpeas, green onions, carrot and walnuts; toss to coat and serve.
Chill salad for about 30 minutes before serving if desired.
