The recipe for this simple bean salad comes from Donna Smith of Victor, New York. Her refreshing side gets extra zest from fresh herbs and a citrusy dressing. Chilling it lets the flavors blend...and gives you time to tend to the rest of the meal. Ingredients:
1 can (15 ounces) garbanzo beans or chickpeas, rinsed and drained |
1/2 cup chopped red onion |
2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley |
1 tablespoon minced fresh mint |
2 tablespoons lemon juice |
2 tablespoons olive oil |
1 garlic clove, minced |
1/2 teaspoon sugar |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
leaf lettuce |
Directions:
1. In a bowl, combine the beans, onion, parsley and mint. In a jar with a tight-fitting lid, combine the lemon juice, oil, garlic, sugar, salt and pepper; shake well. Pour over salad and toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours. Serve on lettuce-lined plates. Yield: 4 servings.
