This salad is a bit too spicy for me. I think I'll use less jalapeño next time.

I'm not a big fan of chickpeas, but I really enjoyed this salad. The dressing is tangy and flavorful, and the chickpeas are perfectly cooked.

I'm allergic to cilantro, so I used parsley instead. It was still delicious!

I followed the recipe exactly, but my salad didn't turn out as good as the picture. It was still tasty, but it didn't have the same vibrant colors.

This salad was a bit bland for my taste. I think it needed more seasoning.

This salad was easy to make and really tasty. I used canned chickpeas, but I'm sure it would be even better with fresh ones. I also added a bit of chopped jalapeño for some extra spice.
