Easy & Delicious
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I love chickpeas and was looking for an easy salad to make that would keep for a couple days to eat for lunch. I make this... salad pretty much as in the recipe minus the red pepper, except I add either one chopped cucumber or replace the celery with cucumber. I also used dill from my spice rack once because I didn't have any fresh rosemary and that was delicious! Another yummy addition is to sprinkle a serving with flax see right before eating!Read more

Loved it
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

I left the onion out because I am not a fan of raw onion. I also cut the amount of ingredients in half and still had a very... big salad for two. I used dried rosemary, about half a tablespoon. This is spicy!!Read more

Variations are a snap
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I've been making something like this for years, and the variations are endless. I usually add a can of tuna fish, and... suddenly it's dinner. Throw in some spicy oil cured oilves, grape tomatoes, diced avocado, fennel . . . also try it with white beans if you prefer a creamier texture. Substitute tarragon for the rosemary. Last night I used mint and leftover chicken, because I had it, and that worked beautifully. Bottled pimentos are nice if you don't have a bell pepper on hand. Try lemon instead of vinegar. Have fun with it! Read more

Delicious chopped salad
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This is a great light and easy-to-make chopped salad. I used cucumber instead of celery because my husband does not like... celery, and it was a great substitute (you still get the crunchy texture). I've made it twice now in two weeks--perfect for summer!Read more
