Assemble: In a large mixing bowl, combine the chickpeas, black beans, tomatoes, onion, cucumber, garlic, mint and parsley. Add the sumac, a good drizzle of olive oil, lemon juice, salt and pepper. Mix well to combine.
Serve at room temperature or chilled.
This salad is perfect on pita bread or Vegan Naan slathered with classic Hummus and layered with arugula. Alternatively, you can add a large handful of arugula to the salad and serve it with pita bread and hummus on the side.

Try adding a dash of cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes for a little heat.
If making wraps, try this Simple White Bean Hummus as an alternative to classic hummus.
