I love bean dishes and have been craving a friend of mine's chick pea salad. I know her ingredients, but not measurements. Well, this is her dish! I made it without using the black beans because that is how she does it, but next time I am adding them in to try it. This is a simple, healthy, light side dish that has a wonderful flavor to it. And it's even better the next day, after marinating for 24 hrs. Thanks for posting this recipe, it's a keeper.

    Lovely flavorful bean salad with the fresh taste of parsley. I did increase the parsley (because I love it), and left out the onion this time (was out), but found this salad to be very enjoyable. I used balsamic vinegar, and followed the recipe in all other respects. Thank you very much for sharing this with us.

    I really liked this dish. I went to a pot luck and took this and everyone liked it very much.

    Well as I said in the post concerning this salad I was dissappointed that it wasn't better received at our school's potluck. Hubby's job was to gather a honest review of the salad, and for the most part it came back as being accepted as average. I sometimes think that not all dishes get a fair shake at "potluck" simply because you can have such a variety of flavors that may simply clash, and I think that in all fairness that could be part of what happened here. I am submitting a picture in gratitude for your suggesting this easy salad, and I must add on the plus side that I did like the idea of making this the night before and then giving it that 1/2 hour of "warm up" time making it ideal in that respect for potluck.

    This is one of my favorite bean salads and I've made it often over the years. I use 2/3 c of red onion, but otherwise the recipe I've saved is the same as this one.
