Garbanzo, Cherry Tomatoes & Basil Salad


Easiest salad ever.
End of story.
It's got some freshness, it's got some protein and some interest with fresh basil.  Enjoy.
If you want to keep it Vegan, then substitute the honey for agave syrup.


Serves 3-4
Ingredients


1 15oz can garbanzo beans, rinsed and drained
11/2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
1 cup basil leaves, chopped
4 cloves garlic, minced
2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 tbsp honey, or agave (optional)
1 tbsp olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste

First thing, mix up the dressing in the bottom of the bowl by mixing the garlic, lemon juice, honey and olive oil together with a whisk.  Add Salt and pepper. 



Toss with the cherry tomatoes, chopped basil and the drained garbanzo beans.  Chill for a couple hours and serve.
