Super easy! Great for family get together's when you don't have a lot of time or money. We prefer a little more salsa and a lot more spice for our family but its such a flexible recipe :)

Easy and versatile for whatever you have on hand. I used one can fire roasted diced chilies, one can fire roasted diced jalapeno, one can fire roasted diced tomatoes, fresh cilantro (omitted parsley), diced green onions, then the remaining ingredients as listed. Great right away, but even better after all the flavors married in the fridge.

Awesome chilled side dish - and the leftovers are phenomenal to punch up cheese quesadillas! Took other reviewers advice & left out the garbanzos, and subbed fresh cilantro for the parsley. Also used farm fresh chunky hot salsa (almost like pico de gallo) & about 1/2 more chili powder for more of a kick.

It was bland and the garbanzo beans seemed really out of place.

Great easy bean salad. As most other people did, I modified the recipe a little. I eliminated the garbanzo beans and used a can of diced tomatoes instead of the salsa becasue that is what I had in my pantry. I also added about 1/4 tsp of garlic salt. When I went to serve it, I diced an avacado and topped the beans with it.

I didn't care for this as a "bean salad", but this made an excellent salsa for tortilla chips! I'd make this again.

I also did not add the veg oil, and I felt it was not spicy enough so I added some chopped jalepeno, however this recipe can be modified by adding whatever you have in the fridge such as celery, red pepper, or veg of choice. It's a good base and we ate it with scoops tortilla chips with shredded cheddar on top.. great !

Such an quick, easy and healthy side dish! Made it without the salsa as a side salad and it was delicious! Am going to make it again with Salsa to try it with chips!

I really liked this recipe. Bean salad is not something I would typiclly make but I needed something for my vegetarian BBQ guests. It was a hit. I used medium spicey salsa which gave this side a nice kick. The bonus is that this is super easy to make.
