    Definitely needs to be spiced up with a bit of lemon juice or vinegar but a very nice, easy salad. I added lemon juice, capers and kalamata olives. - 9/10/08

    Made for dinner tonight. Very nice but next time I will add a little seasoned vinegar at the beginning just to give it a little zing. Hubby loved it. Used chick peas and put it over fresh spinach. Yum!!! - 6/16/08

    I will definitely make this, but simply rinsing the beans will bring down the sodium - 6/15/08
