Cooked a big batch of garbanzo beans to make this and hummus later. Easy to make, cheap, filling and tasted good. Used red onion for color and fresh dill and parsley from the garden. I altered the ratio of vinegar to olive oil using 3 tablespoons red wine vinegar instead of 3 teaspoons. Best prepared at least several hours before planning to eat for best flavor. Served at room temp. Reviewed for ZWT 6. -
This is a cool, light and tasty salad. I halved the amount of olive oil but made no other changes. It's very colorful and perfect for a side dish or a light, filling lunch. I garnished with the fresh parsley as suggested and it was the perfect garnish. Thanx! -
I reduced to only make half a recipe. I liked all of the fresh ingredients and the longer the salad chilled the better. I did add additional vinegar and was generous with both black pepper and red pepper flakes. Made for ZWT6. -
This is quite good if you like chickpeas. I used fresh dill, sea salt, freshly ground black pepper, organic apple cider vinegar in place of red wine vinegar for religious reasons, like others I used a larger amount, extra virgin olive oil, plus the rest of the ingredients. Made for WELCOME TO EGYPT!

My teenager is the pickiest eater in the world, while my 3 year old will eat anything (though has been acting more and more fickle lately). Our newest addition was born in June 2008, so she doesn't really know much in the way of varieties of food. My husband says "I don't care what you fix, as long as it has meat in it."
I have thousands of recipes saved on my computer from over the years, and am constantly on the lookout for new ones. I also seem to have accumulated hundreds of cookbooks over the years. I am (slowly) trying to go thru all the recipes I have saved and add them to 'Zaar, but this will take some time. I try to only post things that my family (or I) will eat (though I haven't necessarily yet tried every recipe I have posted).
