I thought this was OK. Kinda bland so I'd recommend adding in some garlic powder or maybe some dijon mustard.

I made this exactly as written except I subbed onion flakes for raw onion...I liked the combo of lime and lemon a lot but felt it was missing something. I think next time I'll use a regular fresh onion and maybe some of the other reviewers' suggestions because this is a good base!

I've had a lot of chickpea salad sandwiches, but I like this one best. The lemon and dill make a great flavor combination, and the fact that it's not swimming in mayo is quite nice. We like it on whole wheat bread with lettuce, tomato, and sprouts. Thanks for a handy & tasty lunch recipe!

This was great. I used onion powder instead of onions (I don't care for raw onions). I also added red pepper flakes, spicy brown mustard, and grapes... ate it on a spinach wrap and LOVED it! Thanks for a great recipe!

Yum! Only thing I modified was that I used green onion instead of yellow or white.. Next time I am gonna try kidney beans (just because they are cheaper) but other than that I wouldn't change a thing.. Quick and Easy with a Yummy taste, what else could you ask for?? Thanks Sunshine..
