GARBANZO BEAN AND PEPPER SALAD
I made up this recipe for a cool summer dish to take to a picnic. I just threw together things I had on hand and it became a hit! You may substitute your favorite type of bean for the garbanzos. Any firm bean will do. You may omit the jalapeno altogether. This salad will work as a main course and is very satisfying and colorful. The different tastes and textures are very pleasing. Serve cold.

- Place quinoa in large saucepan; add enough salted water to cover quinoa by 1 inch. Bring to boil. Reduce heat to medium-low; cover and simmer until quinoa is tender, 15 to 16 minutes. Drain. Chill until cool.

Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, flavorful ingredients will make your garbanzo salad taste its best. Look for plump, firm garbanzo beans, crisp vegetables, and herbs.
- Cook the garbanzo beans properly: If you're using dried garbanzo beans, be sure to soak them overnight before cooking. This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from becoming tough.
- Don't overdress the salad: A light vinaigrette is all you need to dress a garbanzo salad. Too much dressing will overpower the flavors of the beans and vegetables.
- Add some crunch: Toasted nuts, seeds, or croutons add a nice crunch to a garbanzo salad. They also add flavor and texture.
- Make it a meal: A garbanzo salad can be a meal on its own, or it can be served as a side dish. If you're serving it as a meal, add some protein, such as grilled chicken or tofu.
Conclusion:
Garbanzo salad is a delicious, healthy, and versatile dish. It's perfect for a quick lunch, a light dinner, or a potluck party. With so many different variations, there's sure to be a garbanzo salad recipe that everyone will enjoy.
