It has been forever since I did a Pin-tester post but I decided it was time to bring it back since I have been doing a whole lotta pinning and not a lot of doing or making as of recently.
I decided I would start off the series with food because to be honest I have been sucking in the dinner making department. Nothing sounds exciting and the creative/imaginative part of my brain seems to be on vacation. So I searched my main food board and found something that sounded perfect for a hot (almost) summer night.
This pin came from a blog called The Garden Grazer
What you will need:
- 1 hothouse cucumber
- 4-5 ripe Roma tomatoes (I omitted these)
- 1 large red bell pepper
- 1 small red onion
- 1/3 cup of feta cheese
- 15 oz can of garbanzo beans (rinsed and drained)
- 3 tbs of red wine vinegar
- 1/4 cup of olive oil
- 2 tsp of oregano
- 1/4 tsp of salt
Directions:
- In a small bowl mix together the ingredients for the dressing and set aside.
- Dice the cucumbers, bell pepper and onion and add to a large bowl.
- Add in the garbanzo beans and the feta cheese.
- Add dressing and toss.
- Serve and eat immediately (the leftovers were soggy so this is best fresh).

Love this! Our tomato garden is in full force, so I can't wait to give this a try! Thanks for sharing
I don't like tomatoes, so this looks amazing to me! Thank you!!
This looks great and I love this series!
What's wrong with tomatoes from Mexico? Is it simply a "buy local" issue?
Leica- yes I prefer to buy local :)
I make a greek-inspired salad with farro or barley (for that extra fiber/protein), or pasta, and usually add kalamata olives - I'm trying garbanzos next time. YUM - perfect light and fresh summer fare.
This looks sooo good! Can't wait to try it. Thanks for sharing Lindsay!
