I liked this salad a lot. It reminds me of a Waldorf salad, but with garbanzo beans.

This recipe was 5 star...UNTIL I added the mustard and honey! That part was not for my personal taste. Leave out those ingredients and you'll have a winner in my opinion. However, if you will refrigerate for a couple of days, the flavors meld and it is better even with the honey and mustard. It is easier to just leave it out.

Our entire family ejoyed this salad. I hate buying celery because it usually goes to waste, so instead I used three slices of vegetarian bacon. It was really good!

I omitted the honey as I was using honey mustard. This was nice for a light summer lunch, but next time I would also omit the apple. Thanks, Dottie!

We did not like the flavor of this salad. It was served to company with other salads, and no one wanted seconds.

Thought this was good, but not great. The garbanzo beans seemed very dry. Very easy to make.

Very easy and different. Used green onions instead of regular onion and didn't have walnuts so I subbed dried cherries. I love garbanzo beans and look for ways to use them. Served with fried chicken and deviled eggs.

Wow -- This was delicious and I will definitely make it again. I increased the serving size to 12 and although it called for 3 apples, I just included 2. I love the combination of textures. I added some grill seasoning for added flavor. Next time I may add in some toasted sesame seeds or even cilantro. Highly recommended -- I received lots of compliments and recipe requests when I served this at my party.

Very good! I used sweet onions and added about 1/4 cup. I also added salt and pepper.

I thought this was great, although I did feel compelled to season it a bit more. I substituted brown sugar for honey, forgot to put in nuts, used 'Ultra Low-Fat Miracle Whip', and threw it a few spices. I was GOING to eat the leftovers but it seems that my husband beat me to them!!

Everyone liked this. I served it as a main course salad on a mixture of baby spinach and romaine along with rice and sauteed vegetables. I substituted a TBSP. of the mayo with olive oil and added a bit more mustard and lemon juice.

Sooooo good. This salad is perfect.. It's filling enough for my boyfriend and healthy enough for me. Very refreshing and easy. I served it on a bed of romaine lettuce and fresh baby spinach instead of iceberg. And I used pecans. But I think any nut would be great in this salad. It is great as a side for grilled salmon.

I really enjoyed this salad...kind of like a Waldorf salad. I went easy on the mayo, used almonds instead of walnuts, and added some dried cranberries. It was very good! I'll be making this again.

This salad was great! I did use some halved red grapes along with a golden delicious apple; I also used slivered almonds instead of the walnuts. I'll definitely make it again with the slight alterations. It's great for a crowd too.
