"Yah, well, for Superbowl Sunday, I just had to, lol. This fabulous salad is just too good to be true. Cooking time is zero unless you cook your own garbanzo beans."

Just commenting: Not sure what I thought about this salad. The dressing has alot of potential but the pineapple was a little strange for me. Otherwise, enjoyed it!
