Recipe Monday

October22

My new favorite salad recipe. My mom made it for me when she visited us in Guatemala and it was yummy. She made it again while I was visiting and I immediately made it when I returned home. Simple but yummy.

Chickpea Salad with Herbs

2 (15-0z) cans chickpeas/garbanzo beans, drained & rinsed
1 tbsp red wine vinegar
1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
1 tbsp olive oil
1/ 4 tsp salt
1/ 4 tsp pepper
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tbsp fresh oregano, minced
1 tbsp fresh thyme, minced
1/ 2 cup red onion, thinly sliced OR 1 bunch green onions sliced

1 Roma tomato sliced

Combine all ingredients. Let sit at room temperature for 1 hour before serving.

I prefer it with green onions rather than red. I leave out the tomato because I don’t like tomatoes.

    Hi,

    Cute photos of your trip. Recipe looks yummy. We just missed you in Houston by a few days. My Grandma lives there and we were all there for 5 days. Bummer. Maybe next time!
