Salad Ingredients

Method

Preparation Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Beans

    Open the cans of kidney beans, black beans, and chickpeas. Drain and rinse them under cold water in a colander to remove excess sodium and canning liquid. Allow them to drain well.

  2. 2

    Chop Vegetables

    Dice the red bell pepper into small pieces and finely chop the red onion. Set them aside in a large mixing bowl.

  3. 3

    Combine Salad Ingredients

    In the large mixing bowl with the red bell pepper and onion, add the rinsed kidney beans, black beans, and chickpeas. Also, add the chopped fresh parsley.

  4. 4

    Make the Dressing

    In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, red wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

  5. 5

    Dress the Salad

    Pour the dressing over the bean and vegetable mixture. Use a spatula or large spoon to gently toss everything together until the salad is evenly coated with the dressing.

  6. 6

    Chill and Serve

    Cover the salad with plastic wrap or transfer it to an airtight container. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Serve chilled.
