Chickpea Apple Salad with Blackberry Vinaigrette

DRESSING:
1 tbl blackberry syrup or puree
2 tbl pineapple or mirin vinegar
1/2 x lemon juiced
salt
pepper
1 1/2 tbl extra virgin olive oil

SALAD:
2 cup mixed salad greens (mesclun) with spinach (or more)
4 oz canned garbanzo beans rinsed
4 oz sliced mushrooms
2 x green onions with tops diced
2 tbl chopped fresh basil
1 med red delicious apple cored, diced

Combine the syrup, vinegar and lemon juice. Add a pinch of salt and
pepper. Whisk in the oil. Set aside.
Combine the salad ingredients - waiting to cut the apple last. Whisk
the dressing again. Drizzle about half on the salad and toss to
coat. Chill both salad and extra dressing until serving. Serve;
offer the extra dressing on the side.

TIP - Mesclun - A combination of several varieties of salad greens,
particularly baby lettuces; available in many supermarkets. Look for
mesclun with crisp leaves and no sign of wilting. It may be
refrigerated in a plastic bag for up to five days; wash and blot dry
just before using. Mesclun mixes can vary, but commonly include:
radicchio, arugula, sorrel, dandelion, oak leaf, mizuma and frisee.
It's sometimes called "european blend."

ALTERNATIVE DRESSING:

3 tbs diet vinaigrette
1 tbs blackberry puree or syrup or seedless sugarfree blackberry jam
fresh lemon juice to taste
salt and pepper

Chickpeas and crisp sweet apple make this salad interesting: the
apples were diced the same size as the chickpeas. We enjoyed the
freshness of the blackberry vinaigrette. We liked this a lot more
than that supersweet raspberry dressing. The basil may seem odd, but
it worked well as a sharp surprise. This combination salad was
better than expected and we will do this again.
