This recipe was printed in the paper recently and when I read it, I realized I had all the ingredients. How often does that happen? I made the salad this past weekend. I ate it during the week, on top of a big pile of lettuce. Here it is with my changes:
Garbanzo Bean Salad With Lemon Dressing

It was good, but I felt like it was missing something (probably salt!) - maybe more lemon or vinegar next time?
Also, it says it makes 4 servings but with that many beans and since I added extras, it was more like 8!
