Simple Garbanzos

I love garbanzos, I love peas; this was a perfect recipe for me! Delicious! Some minor adjustments: I doubled the peas to 1/2 cup, and reduced the olive oil to 4 T. In addition to tasting wonderful, the salad looked beautiful as well, and I think it would make a nice side dish for a summer bbq. Of course, with all the garlic and onions, I should probably put a bowl of mints right next to it! Thanks!

I skipped the peas. The garbanzos alone were really good, but I think I added more onion than I should have. Definately a nice chilled bean salad that will go in the recipe box!

Quick & easy meal! I didn't have onions nor garlic, so I used onion & garlic powders. I added one can of tomatoes with onion & garlic, decreased the oil to 4 tbsp (btw...that's 1/4 cup) and increased the peas to about 1 cup.

I cannot keep my spoon out of these! As is, they are perfect but I spiced them up to my liking and added a shook of Italian seasoning in addition to the oregano. Along with some roasted brussels sprounts, these made a lovely little mini-meal

These are a delicious side and even better the next day! It's one of those where you can add more of what you like - i think i added more garlic, onion and red pepper flakes. So easy; definitely a winner. Thanks!

Loved this! I added diced orange bell pepper for a little extra texture and flavor. I increased the cayenne pepper a tad and as other reviews did, I also increased the peas to 1/2 cup and decreased the olive oil to 3 Tbsp. Ate as a side dish, but could definitely eat as a snack as well. Yum!

This was a great weeknight picnic recipe. Simple and quick and lots of flavor. I also decreased the amount of olive oil and increased the peas to 1/2 cup. This is definitely a keeper.

This was surprisingly good and so easy to make. I didn't even know I liked garbanzos but now I do!

Easy and delicious. Even the kids ate it. I added chopped red peppers for a little more crunch and color.

I thought this was a good basic recipe, but it lacked a little luster as it was, so I rated it a 3. We added Feta and added sea salt. With these adjustments it made it a 4 star. I will definitely make it again since I almost always have it's ingredients on hand.

This was a pretty good salad. I followed the recommendations, less oil, twice as much peas. I didn't have cayenne pepper seasoning so instead I used a Hot Mexican Chilli or something weird I got out of the spice aisle. Tastes healthy and good I think!

Was looking for some healthy snack/side recipes using garbanzos and came across this. It is delicious! I didn't have lemon so I subbed lime juice, ommitted the peas (don't like frozen peas) and added a little less olive oil and a little more salt. Made them last nigth and marinated overnight to bring to work with my lunch and they are absolutely wonderful!

HAVE DONE THIS DISH MANY TIMES SINCE 2007,SO TODAY AFTER HAVING SOME GARBANZO BEANS LEFT OVER THAT I DID FROM SCRATCH FOR HUMMUS I MADE ANOTHER BATCH THAT I LOVE, AND REALIZED THAT I NEVER THANKED SHELAGH AND POSTED A REVIEW. IT CAN BE TWEAKED IF YOU WISH. THIS IS A KEEPER.

Not my favorite. Oregano seemed too strong for our taste.

Yum! Easy and delicious. It doesn't get any better. Also a good base for experimenting.

I love garbanzo beans, Hubby does not-but said he would eat them this way anytime! Thanks for sharing.

OMG...so good - even better the next day - this is great because you can have everything i the house and make it last minute....so GOOD!!

This was a very tasty dish. I'll admit I didn't have the onions, garlic or lemon juice and I substituted powders and lemon pepper instead. The lemon pepper was a bit much but I get the idea and it is yummy! I used 4 T. of oil and I found even that to be a bit much.

Simple Garbanzos=Great! Upgraded simple garbanzos=awesome! added: 1/8 cup chopped sundried tomatoes 4 TBSP Olive oil 1/2 TSP red pepper flakes 1/4 Large yellow bell Pepper 1/2 Cup Edamame (instead of peas) 1/4 Large Red onion chopped finely 1 medium yellow carrot julienned and chopped 1 medium regular carrot julienned and chopped Even better the next day!

We really liked this. I used 1/2 cup of peas and it was perfect.

i have made this at leat 20 times now. great easy side. thx

This was WAY better than I expected. I will definately be making this one again.

this was very easy and tasty. I doubled the peas and reduced olive oil to 3 TBS. I didn't grate the onions, just chopped them very finely. Yummy

Was better the next day, but seemed to be lacking something, I just couldn't figure out what!

i love garbanzos and looked for something different. this is a start

I doubled the peas and reduced the oil to 2 tbsp, 5 just seemed excessive. I thought it was too oregano-y but my family loved it so... four stars.

Easy and Tasty!! Will make again for sure!

I didn't have peas, but this is great without them

I will definitely make this over and over again! I didn't have lemon and substituted lime juice and it was amazing! My brother loved it and suggested that I add bowtie pasta and maybe some peppers. I'll do that next time. I think this recipe is beautiful as is and there are also unlimited ways to "tweak" it depending on what I have on hand. Thanks for sharing!

I will definitely make this again with no changes. The lemon cuts through the garlic really nicely and I just love olive oil.

Family really liked this. I used edamame instead of peas and I had to increase everything because in Canada our tins of chickpeas are 19 fl. oz. So once I had it all together and tasted it, it needed more of the spices.

delicious!

My Mum and I love this recipe. We changed it up a little, adding 1 cup of cooked couscous, more peas and a some celery and dash of white wine vinegar. Exceptional!

I'm transitioning into becoming a vegetarian, and this recipe has convinced me that not only is being vegetarian healthy, it's delicous! I used 1/2 cup of peas and only 2 T. olive oil. I think adding chopped tomatoes in the summer would be lovely.

Super-easy and super-delicious.
