Chickpea salad

* 2 cans of chick peas (garbanzo beans), drained & rinsed
* 2-3 green onions chopped
* 2-3 tomatoes, diced
* 1 English cucumber (the long skinny seedless ones), diced
* 1-2 tbsp of chopped garlic
* Sun dried tomato salad dressing
* Red wine vinegar
* Salt and pepper to taste

* Combine all ingredients in a bowl with a lid. Mix.
* Only add red wine vinegar if you think that the salad dressing is too thick.
* Let marinate in the frig for at least two days before serving.
* Turn the mixture whenever you think of it. Basically the longer you let it sit, the longer it has to combine flavours and the salad dressing has a chance to marinate, add some vinegar if you would like.

*A variation that is quite yummy is to cube some swiss or emmental ( I recommend El Presidente from Loblaws) cheese and add it to the mix.

Super yummy with tuna sandwiches!
