Recipe:Summer Garbanzo Bean Salad



This simple fresh salad tasted great the other night and was so easy to make.  The kids even loved this!  

Recipe

  • One bag of dried Garbanzo Beans (Chickpeas)
  • One pint of Grape Tomatoes
  • One Avocado
  • One Cucumber
  • 10-15 leaves of Basil
  • Juice of one Lemon
  • 2-3 T Olive Oil
  • Salt/Pepper to taste
Soak the beans overnight, then cook until soft.  Cut tomatoes in half, cube the avocado, quarter and thinly slice the cucumber, chop the basil and mix it all together in a large bowl.  Drizzle the oil and the lemon juice over it all and season to taste.   I served this over fresh greens and it was a winner!
