Chickpea Salad With Cumin Vinaigrette


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.
