Very nice, but we think we'd have preferred it without the salmon as per the original recipe, or with just a small can. I used a 400 gram can of chickpeas, 415 gram can of salmon, 2 vine-ripened tomatoes, 1 small red onion, 1/2 large rib of celery, 1 clove of garlic, 2 TBS fresh parsley, 3/4 tsp of dried dill tips, 4 tsp of red wine vinegar, 1/4 cup of olive oil and salt & pepper. After trying it I added a little more vinegar. I'll make it again without the salmon and will post a rating. -
This is delicious! I've made it twice in 3 days, once with white wine vinegar and tuna, and next with red wine vinegar and salmon. I think I may prefer the red wine vinegar and tuna but any combination is good. I also added about twice as many tomatoes as they are at their best now, and with the tuna, added thin slices of daikon (a kind of radish), and cucumber with the salmon. Thank you so much for this recipe. I only regret I waited so long to try it. -
Very good bean salad. I also whisked in a scant teaspoon of dijon mustard into the vinaigrette and added a tin of tuna at serving time so we could make a 'meal' of it. -
What a nice salad for the summer time, I have it as a meal all on its own. My family just loves it. I do one similer to this which I will be posting later. Thanks MizzNezz for sharing. -
Nice salad. I used it as a light main dish. I added some kidney beans and green pepper that I had leftover; both were wonderful in this salad. Next time I will add more vinegar and less oil. Thanks for sharing.

This is a fantastic salad! I served it with grilled salmon, and it was a wonderful pairing. The only thing I did differently was substitute more chopped tomato for the celery & double the vinegar! Thanks for the great recipe!

After DH and I moved away from the farm, and to the city...I haven't done as much cooking and very little canning. But I do come to Zaar and look for new recipes once in a while. I'm still cooking Zaar!!
I like to play at Facebook, with my family and friends. A lot of my Zaar friends are there!! Yay! It's a good way to keep in touch.
We travel more. We're looking at the European trips now. Hope to go in the springtime. I really want to see London, I think I lived there in a past life, I've been obsessed with it since I was 10 years old!!
