Green Salad with Chickpeas image

Chickpeas, white balsamic vinegar, and honey join olives, tomatoes, red onion, and greens for a new twist on a Greek salad. You can use white-wine vinegar in place of the balsamic -- just add more honey to taste.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my salad didn't turn out as good as I hoped. The dressing was too oily and the chickpeas were too hard.
