Found this on Pinterest and am making it now! I am a huge fan of bean salads! If I like this, would you mind if I blogged about it? I will take my own photos and link back to your blog of course. :)

Susan – Glad you liked it! Just curious, did you drain and weigh the chickpeas to calculate? The weight listed on the can included the liquid as well as the beans. That may be why my calculations are coming in a little lower.

I made this yesterday to have for lunches this week. Very yummy!

I will say my recipe came out to 317 calories, so not sure how you got the 245, but no worries!

Thanks for a great recipe!

I just made this, and it is so good, without even sitting in the fridge. Once that happens and the flavors mix, I can see this being AMAZING.
I added red pepper flakes and some balsamic, since I didn’t have apple vinegar. Both of those things were great!
Also, I adde some shaved parmasean, because if there is salad involved, I need cheese.

Thanks for the great recipe!

Just made this for dinner – wow! So simple and delicious! I added cucumber and olives but it would’ve been fine without. Thanks so much for posting this :)

I’ve made this twice in a few days, it rules that much. I have to try it with a little feta in it. :)

Sorry for the late response. Just double the red wine vinegar but pic up some apple cider next time. The combo is great!

It should be fine. The basil may just wilt on you a little. Hope you like it!

So pretty! I was so excited to make this, I made it 2 days too early for my pot luck at work. Will it keep in the fridge?

Delish! Just made this. Will definitely be one that I will make again – and again – and again!! Thanks!!! Always looking for good vegetarian recipes. I too have never heard of too much garlic :)

Inspired by your blog. Have a 2 1/2 year old so I don’t get much time on the computer but that is changing. Am 42 and my beloved body is processing food differently…also lifestyle changes…new season. Am changing my (and our) eating habits. Again, inspired by your blog. Thanks for it. Jen

Rebekah – A little agave, sugar, splenda, whatever your fav sweetener is should work. Just a bit to break the bite of the vinegar.

I have made this recipe twice now and it is delicious! It’s a new way to use tomatoes with basil. It works great as a side, and I have also eaten it for lunch with mozzerella and sliced turkey thrown in. Thanks!
