Chickpea Salad with Red Onion and Tomato
Really good salad! I made a few changes: I used a basket of Cherry tomatoes, cut in half; I also added a couple splashes of Balsamic Vinegar; and since my family LOVES Cilantro (I know many don't), added about 1 T. of freshly chopped Cilantro. It was sooo good. Very refreshing out on the deck. Garbanzos (and other legumes) are so healthy and very good to help control blood sugar, as well as adding fiber to the diet. So a healthy choice!

Amazing Pork Tenderloin in the Slow Cooker
With so many great reviews, I was excited to try this recipe, but should have heeded all the negative ones. I followed the recipe exactly, but also studded the pork tenderloin with fresh garlic cloves. I also used Low Sodium soy sauce. After cooking it for 1 hour on High, and 3 hours on Low, the pork itself turned out moist and tender. But the sauce was horrible.. so salty as to be inedible. I rescued dinner by opening a can of Campbell's Beefy Mushroom soup, then adding a splash of Balsamic Vinegar, ground black pepper, and 1/4 cup of the juice from the slow cooker, and heating that up-- it made a great gravy. The one in the cooker was just too horribly salty to eat as is. I will make slow cooker pork tenderloin again, but not with the same ingredients--next time I'll try using the Campbells Beefy Mushroom plus some wine and fresh onions. Thanks anyway.

Artichoke Chicken
Really very good, especially for being so easy! I can see making this for company. I did not have any sour cream (which a few others suggested using as part of the mayo)-- but I had leftover Tsatsiki sauce (Greek yogurt, garlic, chopped cucumbers & mint, lemon juice) and I used a little of that in place of some of the mayonnaise. I also added 1 additional minced garlic clove, and as others suggested-- I chopped the artichokes, then squeezed them dry. Turned out fabulous! Thanks for a great recipe!
