Simple and delicious. Next time I might add tomatoes or feta or good black olives or salami.... I would probably add another can of chickpeas or some other bean to boost the protein level. And the vinaigrette could be used on many other vegetable dishes.

    Delicious!! Whipped this up this morning for dinner tonight and I couldn't stay out of it...taste tested it at least three times....LOL! I used two cans of beans as I read the ingredient list wrong and already had two cans opened when I realized there should have only been one can, used vidalia onion since I had it on hand already, and as I'm not a fan of green olives, I substituted a small can of sliced black olives. I feel the changes were minimal, but the result was fantastic! I'm adding this to my permanent collection and am sure it will be pulled out often for weekends at the lake when we all eat outside together!

    What a great summer salad!!! So light and refreshing. A great make-ahead dish when you are having a crowd over. Everyone loved the combination of ingredients. I especially liked the garbanzo beans mixed in with the cucumbers! I have made a copy of this to put in my "keeper" recipe notebook. Thank you so much for sharing this great salad.

    This was lite and easy. DH had the leftovers later, and his only comment was that it could use some Avacado.
