Steps:

• Rinse and drain chickpeas.
• Drain artichoke hearts and cut into smaller pieces.
• Chop onion and bell pepper.
• Whisk together oil, vinegar, lemon juice, parsley, and cayenne.
• Pour dressing over vegetables and stir to coat.
• Allow salad to marinate for a few hours or overnight.
• I do not add salt. Canned vegetables are salty, anyway (which is one reason I rinsed the chickpeas), but since the dressing is vinegar, lemon juice, and cayenne, you really don't need to add any salt.
• You can also use fresh or dried-and-cooked chickpeas instead, of course.
