Garbanzo

Here’s a recipe for a delicious salad I had this week. Greek Garbanzo Bean Salad



garbanzo



Prep and Cook Time: 10 minutes
Ingredients:

1 15 oz can garbanzo beans, preferably organic

2 cloves garlic

sea salt and pepper to taste

2/3 cup minced green onion

1 medium tomato, diced

3 TBS parsley, minced

2 TBS extra virgin olive oil

1 TBS fresh lemon juice

Optional: 1/4 cup feta cheese

1 head romaine lettuce



Directions:

Press or mince garlic and let sit for at least 5 minutes to bring out its hidden health benefits.

Drain liquid from garbanzo beans and rinse under cold running water; this helps prevent intestinal gas.

Mince green onions.

Dice tomatoes.

Mince parsley

Combine all ingredients and serve over a bed of romaine lettuce.

Top with feta cheese, if desired.

Serves 2
