Garbanzo Bean, Tomato and Feta salad

Because this is such a cold and fresh salad, it goes well with lightly fried foods because it cuts the richness of the fried aspect but is the perfect compliment. I served with vegetable fritters and it was excellent.

Ingredients:
- 1 can garbanzo beans drained
- 2 small ripe tomatoes
- 1/2 large jalapeno, minced
- 1 lemon
- 1/3 cup fresh feta cheese
- salt
- pepper
- garlic powder
- olive oil




To Make:

In a large bowl,  combine garbanzo beans, diced tomatoes, feta, minced jalapeno and 1/4 cup olive oil. Mix together. Then add 1 tsp of salt, pepper and garlic powder. 


Zest 1/2 of a lemon and then squeeze the juice from the lemon into the salad. Mix together. Taste and then store in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
