(Cuban Garbanzo Bean Salad)
Jorge Castillo: We've been told...
Glenn Lindgren: ... by the Food Police...
Jorge Castillo: ...that Cuban food is unhealthy...
Glenn Lindgren: ... by the Food Police...
Jorge Castillo: ..."Where's the salads?" they cry.
Glenn Lindgren: Again, that's the Food Police, talking.
Jorge Castillo: Well, just to prove them wrong, here is another delicious and healthy Cuban salad.
Glenn Lindgren: The next time anyone from the Food Police comes over, we're going to give them a big bag of lettuce to munch on. That will mean more of that "unhealthy" Cuban food for the rest of us! YUM!
Combine the peppers, onion, and garbanzo beans in a non-metallic bowl. Use a blender to combine the lime juice, olive oil, cumin, salt, pepper, and garlic. Pour the dressing over the garbanzo bean mixture, cover and refrigerate for one hour or more to let the flavors absorb into the beans.
Emulate Martha Stewart by serving the salad chilled on a lettuce leaf!
