Insanely Easy Chickpea Salad image

"Insanely Easy" is right. I don't even need to look at the recipe anymore -- I just eyeball the amounts, and it comes out fine. This is a great substitute for chicken or tuna salad. It's good in sandwiches or spread on crackers. Adapted from The Teen's Vegetarian Cookbook, by Judy Krizmanic.
