Junk Salad

I hate chopping lettuce for salad. I made this up for my family at Christmas and I love all the veggies. You could make tons of substitutions and omit the lettuce it you want.  The curried chick peas make the salad.

Ingredients:
1 can garbanzo beans, rinsed and drained
1-2 teaspoons curry powder
1 tablespoon oil
Salt and pepper

Vegetables:
1 head romaine lettuce
1 red pepper
1 cucumber
1/2 pint cherry tomatoes
Radishes
1/2 bunch flat leaf parsley
2-3 stalks celery
1/2 red onion
2 ounces chopped almonds

Instructions:
Heat oil in small skillet. Add garbanzo beans, curry powder, salt and pepper. Toss and toast,

Chop all vegetables in similar size and put in large bowl with garbanzo beans. Toss with balsamic dressing of choice.
