Chick Pea (Garbanzo) Salsa image

Came up with this one myself after staring into the pantry for awhile awaiting inspiration to find me. Hubby and I both liked the result, so thought I would share. It's a quick, easy combination that can be used as a zesty side salad, a chunky "salsa" or a smooth hummus-like dip or spread. Depending on your chosen texture serve on the side, with tortilla chips and/or raw veggies. Parsley or cilantro or powdered cumin to taste can be added for variation. The addition of some green color is especially nice if preparing the side salad option. ENJOY!!

This salsa is a great way to use up leftover chickpeas. It's also a healthy and delicious snack. I like to serve it with chips, but it would also be good on tacos or burritos.
