Lebanese Chickpea Salad
18 oz can of chickpeas, rinse and drain
2 T good olive oil
I cup fresh diced tomatoes
1 cup fresh diced cucumber
1/4 cup diced red onion
1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley
1/4 cup chopped fresh mint
1 tsp minced garlic, fresh or jarred
Juice of one fresh lemon
Salt and pepper to taste
Toss together. Good immediately but better if you refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to an hour. This is a gluten free salad very much like tabouleh.
If you like more chickpeas add another can, but be sure to take the time to refrigerate for half an hour before serving to let the herby flavor work.
