Quick and Simple Tuna and Garbanzo Salad
"I found this recipe on a can of "Bush's" garbanzo beans. This is one of my favorite lunches now. Tossed on top of some lettuce or stuffed into a pita. Let me kow if you try any successful variations."

Great! Did everything the same except only used one can of chickpeas. My husband especially loves it. -
Quick, delicious and healthy! I used red wine vinegar b/c that's all I had and also topped it with some reduced fat feta cheese (just b/c I love the combination of chickepeas and fet) Will definitely make again. Thanks! -
Delicious salad! I followed your recipe exactly, but used red wine vinegar instead of balsamic. I also went ahead and added some fresh oregano and feta because I had them on hand and thought they may be a tasty addition. WOW! So, so good and so fresh! Thanks so much for sharing! I'll definitely be making this again! Delish! -
Did most of the tweaks, including less chickpeas, added diced red peppers, cucumber, crumbled feta, extra fresh parsley - omitted the tomato, made my own spicy vinegrette. It was pretty good but the next day was amazing as the flavours had time to integrate. Definitely recommend making ahead! -
I added some sliced kalamata olives to give this some extra flavor and made a homemade dressing with 1 clove garlic, some basil, oregano, red wine vinegar, balsamic vinegar and extra virgin olive oil. Topped it with feta. Delicious.

This is a simple, healthy, tasty recipe. I made a couple of changes based on other reviews. I used only 1 can of chick pea, added more parsley, used red onion, and used my home made balsamic vinaigrette. I also did not have any celery and used carrots instead. With the slight changes I felt that this was a great light lunch. Thanks so much for posting Kanzeda.

Quick it right! I put this together in 5 min and it was healthy, tasty, and fresh feeling. The only change I made was I used a spring onion instead of a cooking onion. Thanks for sharing, I'll make this often. -
Quick, easy, and yummy! I made it in less than 10 minutes. I did substitute half of the balsamic for regular white vinegar, and dried parsley for fresh. Next time I will likely add more vegetables and use only one can of beans. Two cans was almost too much. I had planned on eating grapes on the side, but got lazy and tossed them in the same bowl - surprisingly, it turned out quite good that way. Great recipe. Thanks for sharing!

Really liked this salad. Used only 1 can of chickpeas, mint instead of parsley and garlic vinaigrette (Garlic Expressions). Served on a bed of lettuce and garnished with black olives and yellow peppers.

I love to cook, to feed people and to experiment. Unfortunately I have a very limited audience, so most of my creations are reserved for me alone. My BF is a sort of picky eater and all of my favorites he dislikes, so I'm learning how to get around lots of ingredients. Like mushrooms (so sad), tomatoes and onions... who cooks without onions? In this one way, it's almost a good thing that our schedules allow for only 3 meals a weeks together :-)
