Summer Salads!

So my friend Michelle who is a wonderful chef, like real chef, like pre-momma-days-worked-in-restaurant chef, posted this delish summer chickpea salad on her blog a day or two ago.

I had half the ingredients but still wanted to make something like it, so I did a little spin off on her recipe and made an impromptu salad.  Here is Michelle’s yummy recipe and my impromptu recipe!
I love the raw and fresh taste of these summery salads!
Thanks for sharing your wonderful recipe Michelle!
