This is an OUTSTANDING VEGAN salad! It really took me by surprise...I thought I would regret not adding some extra herbs to it and then I thought I bet this would be good with tuna but after it sat a few hours it was SOOOOOO GOOD! My husband really loved it too. I diced everything and used everything. The only change I made was to add some fresh lemon juice. This is a KEEPER and REPEATER for sure! We did think the pimento stuffed green olives were what made it extra special...next time I'll add more...I used the whole small kind and liked them not cut. This would be a pretty recipe for a Vegan Christmas. Made for 1-2-3 hit wonders.

This is wonderfully flavorful. I did cut back on the oil (I used half) so mine was a bit dryer but that was fine by me to trim the fat back. Loved the mustard and balsamic. This would be a great pic-nic take along for summer outings too. I used the capers and recommend them. I will definitely make this again.

Delish! Only changes I made was to leave out the oil (I always do due to dietary restriction) and added extra garlic and a dash of red pepper flakes (just 'cause we like our foods stinky and hot!). I love the capers and olives, yum. We had colossial garlic stuffed olives, so I quartered them because they were so large. Thanks for this tasty salad, it will be the center of our lunches for the next couple of days.

This was a great "healthy" lunch after all the big meals we have been having for Christmas!! Made half a recipe and used a whole red bell pepper intead of a green and red. Made for Holiday Tag! Thanks Dreamer

I loved this I didn`t use green peppers or olives. I would have loved some cilantro and lime juice in this. I did use Whole Grain Dijon Mustard with a nice kick. 2 cloves of garlic went in this. I roasted a whole red pepper before adding to this. Thanks for the healthy yumminess.

Quite tasty. I omitted the olives and added some cilantro and parsley. I ate it after refrigerating the salad for about 8 hours. The dressing had a very nice flavor to it. I bet the leftovers will be even better! Definitely worth making again. Made and reviewed for ZWT 2008.

I love anything with chickpeas! I found this was slightly lacking in flavor, but then again I had omitted the capers and olives (don't like 'em) so it was my own fault I made some extra marinade and lots of garlic for my garlic tooth!! Very versatile. Thanks for PAC yumminess!

I'm giving this 4 stars as it was a great salad but needed some amount adjustments, I did add in the capers, but thinking may anchovies would have been great in place of the capers?? it also needs a bit of onion and lots of freshly ground black pepper, this needs time in the fridge to blend the flavors for at least a couple hours, thank you for sharing Dreamer!...Kitten

I omitted the garlic. I used 1 red pepper and half a green pepper. The addition of green olives make all the difference I think. It gives a wonderful taste. Next time, I'll slice them. Didn't use capers. Made for the market tag. Thanks Dreamer
