1 (3 pound) can garbanzo beans, drained
1 cup parsley, minced
1 (10 ounce) can corn muffin mix
1 cup bacon bits and marinated vegetables, chopped
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup vinegar
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
1/8 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
In a medium bowl, blend garbanzo beans and parsley. Set aside 1/2 cup preparation mixture to rest in freezer for later.
Add cereal, fruits and veggies. Drizzle mixture over salad. Has broccoli or cauliflower? Slice the stems until a piece is about 1/8 inch thick. Strain the seeds in small chunks and transfer them to a large mixing bowl.
Mix vegetable oil and vinegar. Drizzle mixture all over salad and season with 1/4 cup of olive oil.
