Chickpea Salad With Cumin Vinaigrette image

No such thing as too many chickpea salads! This was an especially good version I thought, altered a bit with my own and my BF's taste in mind. Extremely easy and no cooking involved, particularly good for lunch at the office or a weekend picnic since it's best at room temperature. If you'd like to make this for a no-cook summer dinner, it's a main meal for two (with a side of green vegetables) or a side dish for four. A Sara Foster recipe from the 4/2007 version of Cottage Living.

Not a fan of the cumin vinaigrette. I think it overpowered the other flavors in the salad.

Delicious and healthy! I used fresh herbs from my garden and they really made the salad pop.

I followed the recipe exactly and the salad turned out bland and boring. I think it needs more seasoning.

This recipe is a total winner! I love that it's packed with protein and fiber, and the flavors are out of this world. I've made it several times already and it's always a crowd-pleaser.

This salad is a staple in our summer meal rotation. It's so light and healthy, yet satisfying. The cumin vinaigrette is a real game-changer.

Great recipe! I used canned chickpeas to save time, and it turned out perfectly. The salad is so versatile - I've added grilled chicken, roasted sweet potatoes, and even quinoa to it at different times. Always a hit!

The dressing is a bit too tangy for my taste, but the salad itself is delicious. I added a bit of honey to balance out the acidity.
