*1 can chickpeas = 15 oz.
*1 can tuna = 5 oz. I used tuna in water, but tuna in EVOO works too. If you DO use tuna in EVOO, you don't have to drain the can (just pour the whole thing into the bowl with the chickpeas).
-Make sure to drain and rinse the chickpeas before adding them to the bowl. Pour the chickpeas into a strainer then run water over them for 10 seconds to remove the liquid from them that was in the can
-If you want to add or sub other ingredients, try: olives, bell peppers, roasted red peppers, artichokes and/or avocado
