Cook and prepare a marinated garbanzo salad... diced celery, onion, garlic,
lemon juice, olive oil, s n' p, parsley and/or oregano, pinch of sugar...
marinate in fridge over night - can also mix with other beans. Serve on
lettuce leaves attractively arranged along side sliced hard eggs, pickled
beets, olives, tuna salad, sliced cold cuts. potato salad, all or any.
