It's summer, it's hot, and with temperatures sky high I prefer to eat light and refreshing dishes. I indulge in a salad almost daily, as I have been experimenting with more than just the average garden salad. This is a garbanzo ginger salad. It is sharp and bright. The fresh ginger is the star in my opinion, but this bold flavor is sweetened by the carrot. This packs the protein and nutrition for a slow picnic and walk through the park. This would also be an ideal dish to take to your next summer picnic, as it can stand up to the heat. Keep cool, and I hope you all enjoy.
You know my name, not my story. You've heard what I have done, but not what I have been through.
