Gravel Salad Reviews

• I made the salad two times; cutting the olive oil down to 2 T. because of the oily aftertaste in second day servings. A little ciliantro helped.

• OK, not great, not bad, but Ive got tons of leftovers and theyve been sitting in the fridge for a week now untouched. So I probably wont make again.

• Great bean salad, Julio I cut the oil to 2T and added a touch of garlic powder. This will make a good addition to our Fourth of July picnic. Thanks for sharing.

• I love this recipe - its fast and tasty I actually use dried chives & parsley to make it even faster to make.

• This salad was very good, and really easy to make. Not everyone liked it though, so picky eaters beware. Great to prepare when you have a vegan over for dinner. I used canned beans and corn, and it turned out well.

• Really yummy, although I got a little heavy handed with the onions. My mom loved it and said next time to bring her a bigger helping

• This was good, but it was missing something to me. I added more red wine vinegar, cilantro, and added a chopped tomato. It still seemed to be missing something, so Im giving this 4 stars instead of 5.

• Mmmm....beans. good recipe but "gravel salad" really doesnt sound appealing. chin chin needs to chill out on the garbanzo bean vs. chickpea terminology. they are both acceptable and interchangeable.
