Delicious! Couldn't wait 2 hours so I immediately spooned some up for myself. Love it. I used Kalamata olives because I happened to have some on hand. Thanks for a lovely refreshing recipe!

Quick, easy and flavorful. I seeded the cucumbers before before added to maintain crispness. I also added some chopped colored peppers and increased the amount of feta cheese.

We simply loved this recipe. It was delicioius. We did add a little extra feta cheese, about 3 oz. It turned out wonderfully. We used a large cucumber, so we ended up quartering it and slicing them, but even then the pieces were too large, so we cut them in half, again. Then it was perfect.

This was wonderful. I used balsamic vinegar and olive oil. My husband even liked it and he doesn't like bean:)

Very yummy salad. I used less dressing and more feta cheese - and we enjoyed this salad a lot. This will be a great summer salad - cool with very fresh tastes - will make this one again.

Loved it! I did not add the feta because my son is allergic to dairy but it was still great. Both my kids wanted seconds. Delicious and nutritious!!!

I made this tonight to take to a get together, and everyone loved it. I only added about 6 oz of olives, and it still tasted wonderful. Thanks for an awesome healthy recipe!

My husband's verdict: Excellent! I added more feta, as others suggested, and reduced the olives and cucumber by half (personal preference). Will definitely make again. I'll add some parsley next time. UPDATE: I've been making this salad all summer, and I can't make it fast enough. It disappears almost as soon as it's made!

Very tasty! I added extra feta. The cucumbers were a little soggy the next day so next time I'll omit them.

This was awesome! I didn't have feta cheese, so I used a marinated goat cheese instead, and it was incredible. I will definitely make this again.

This is really pretty good. I don't normally like garbanzo beans but all the ingredients together make a tasty salad. Even my three-year-old liked it and she usually doesn't like anything.

Pretty good. I used 1/2 of an english cucumber and a sundried tomato dressing, otherwise followed the recipe. I thought the flavors were great together but would add more feta cheese next time. I'll make again with some modifications. The cucumbers were a little soggy the next day but still edible.

I followed the Helpful reviews and added more feta, thank goodness because I'm not sure I could have taken the salad without the extra cheese. I omitted less than half the olives and half the cucumber. When cutting the cucumber, the recipe says, cut in half, then into slices. Those peices seemed far too big in my opinion, so I quartered the cucumber and sliced and the peices were still too big! If I make this again, I'd skin and seed the cucumber and slice/dice it into small peices that were equal to the size of the garbanzo bean. This wasn't my cup of tea, I brought it to a very small family function and only three people even attempted it because the rest could see the red onion and had already planned to avoid anything with onion. I recieved compliments, but I'm not sure what *I* thought of it. I never give up so easily, so I'll probably try this again later, in a suitable occasion where I don't actually have to impress anyone. I'll see what changes I can make to this recipe to make it perfect for my own kind of taste.

This was pretty good. I used about 8oz of olives rather than 15oz and it was plenty. I also used 4oz of feta rather than 1oz, and used low-fat Italian dressing. It made for a good lunch all week!
