I'm always on the hunt for easy and healthy lunch items to bring to the office, one can only eat so many turkey sandwiches and tossed salads. When I stumbled across this garbanzo salad recipe I knew I needed to give it a whirl. The ingredients are all so fresh (and pretty too) a perfect summer lunch for the office or even a picnic!

2 cans garbonzo beans ( rinsed and drained )
