  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¼ teaspoon ground pepper
  • 1 – 15 ounce can garbanzo beans rinsed and drained
  • ½ cup grape tomatoes, halved
  • ½ cucumber, seeded and chopped
  • ½ red bell pepper, chopped
  • ¼ cup onion, chopped
  • ⅓ cup packed fresh chopped mint leaves
Instructions
  1. In a medium bowl whisk the oil, lemon juice, vinegar, zest, cloves, salt, and pepper until well mixed.
