"MY MOTHER gave me this recipe. It was actually a three-bean salad, but I added the garbanzo beans (which are also know as chick peas). It goes over big at potlucks because it's not too sweet and not too sour. Be careful to get the vinegar and sugar mixture just right—no guessing on the amounts!"

I found this in my church potluck cookbook from taste of home. I made it to take to a church supper and everyone loved it. A definite keeper.
