Chickpea Salad and Rice

Here is my variation on the Chickpea Salad and Rice(or Couscous)

 


 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Boil 3 cups of salted water (salt to your taste)
Add 1-1/2 cup of rice. Simmer 20 minutes.
Cool
...
Dice:
1 tomato
1 cuke with skin
1 stalk of celery
1 green, red, or yellow pepper
1 carrot shredded
1/4 cup of parsley

Add:
 Drain
1 can chickpea/garbanzo beans
1 can of black beans

Dressing:
4 tbsp. lemon (I used two lemons)
4 tbsp. oil
1/4 tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. pepper

Mix together all ingredients and pour dressing over salad.

You can sprinkle feta cheese over salad. I used gorgonzola.
