Ingredients
1 cup each or approximately 140 grams each:
- canned black beans
- canned garbanzo beans
- canned kidney beans
- canned white navy beans
- edamame beans thawed from frozen
- 2 cups or 260 grams assorted colorful bell peppers cut in small dice
- 1/3 cup or 50 grams sliced black olives
- 1/3 cup or 50 grams very finely diced red onion
- 1 cup or 150 grams small cherry tomatoes halved
- 1/2 jalapeño or serrano pepper minced (leave out if you like)
- 1/4 cup finely chopped fresh parsley
dressing
- 1/2 cup olive oil
- 1/2 cup sherry vinegar you can use red wine vinegar if you like
- 2 Tbsp granulated sugar
- good pinch of white pepper
- 1/2 tsp celery seed
- 1 tsp onion salt
- 2 tsp Dijon mustard
Instructions
- Make sure all your beans are drained and rinsed well to remove any 'canned' flavor. Place all the beans in a large bowl, along with the rest of the salad ingredients.
- To make the dressing, blend the ingredients together with a stick blender or in a small food processor, until emulsified and creamy. Taste to adjust any of the seasonings.
- Toss the salad in enough dressing to thoroughly moisten, you won't use all of it. Refrigerate until ready to serve, and then toss with more dressing.
Notes
- Double the recipe to use a whole 15 ounce can of each of the beans
- Add tuna for a complete meal.
- Small balls of fresh mozzarella or crumbled feta cheese might be nice.
