1 cup chickpeas, soaked overnight and boiled for 1 hour if from dry, drained and rinsed if canned
1 carrot, grated

2 stalks celery, chopped

1 1/2 Tbsp vinegar (balsamic, rice, white, whatever you've got)
2 1/2 Tbsp lemon juice
garlic powder to taste

Method:
1. Combined ingredients in a large bowl.
2. Mix well and serve cold.
