Ingredients
Scale
15 ounces can of red kidney beans drained and rinsed
15 ounces can of chickpeas/garbanzo beans drained and rinsed
1 package frozen green beans
1/4 cup red onion sliced thinly
2 tablespoons fresh parsley flat or curly, chopped
1/3 cup apple cider vinegar
2 tablespoons white granulated sugar
1/4 cup olive oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Drain and rinse the kidney and garbanzo beans.
Cook the green beans in the microwave according to the instructions. Once finished, remove them from the microwave and dump the green beans in cold water to keep them from continuing to cook and becoming mushy. After a minute or so, drain the beans and set aside.
Take a large bowl and add the vinegar, sugar, olive oil, salt and pepper. Whisk until combined and the salt and sugar are dissolved.
Add all the beans, onion and parsley and toss to combine.
Place plastic wrap over the bowl and refrigerate for a few hours. The salad can be eaten immediately but becomes more flavorful the longer the beans soak in the dressing.
Notes
This salad is a quick and easy side dish for any meal.
