Mixed bean salad. It isn't sexy, it isn't going to blow your socks off and christ, they aren't going to be talking about it for years to come. But sometimes you need a simple salad of undigestable beans to get those scales moving!
Ingredients
- tin of butter beans
- tin of kidney beans
- tin of black eyed beans
- small tin of sweetcorn
- one cucumber - take the seeds out with a spoon and chop
- one large red pepper - deseeded, chopped fine
- one large onion - chopped fine
- one pinch of dill, salt, pepper
- one tablespoon of olive oil (6 syns)
- juice of a lemon
Instructions
- do you want to hazard a guess, Sherlock?
- chop everything up the same size, rinse your beans (dirty bugger), add everything into a giant bowl, stir
- this is perfect for sitting in the fridge for a couple of days or taking to a taster night
Notes
- pop it in the fridge to keep, but if you want you can portion it up for a few batch lunches - we use these snazzy cheap lunchboxes
- get a good knife - you don't need to spend a lot, but it'll make your chopping so much easier - something decent but cheap
