    Cut the large tomato into bite-sized pieces. Remove the seeds if desired.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Garbanzo Beans

    Open the can of garbanzo beans, drain them, and rinse under cold water to remove excess sodium and canning liquid.

    Combine Ingredients

  2. 6

    Add Provolone

    Add the sliced provolone cheese to the salad mixture.

    Dress the Salad

    Drizzle your choice of dressing over the salad, starting with a small amount and adding more to taste. Toss the salad again to evenly coat all ingredients.
