Simple Recipes for Clean Eating - Five Bean Salad

Here are a few quick recipes for some tasty clean food ideas:

Five Bean Salad

I use organic beans, but you are welcome to use non organic, I'm not judging anyone by their food choices.  If possible, read the label & avoid beans with added sugar & ingredients you can't pronounce.  You can also use different beans, whatever you like - it's just a recipe, change it up if you want!

1 can of each of the following:

Garbanzo (Chick Peas)
Kidney
Black
Pinto
Pink

1/4 cup of olive oil
1/3 cup of red wine vinegar

1 tbs of sea salt
1 minced clove of garlic or 1 tbs of garlic powder
1 tbs of onion powder
black pepper to taste

1 scallion or small onion.

Open & drain liquids from each can.  Mix five types of beans in a large bowl.  Set aside.

Pour the olive oil & red wine vinegar over the bean mix.  You can mix the oil & vinegar together, but I usually do one at a time.  Mix well into bean mixture.

Mix dry ingredients together (you can adjust the amounts of dry ingredients to your liking) & then sprinkle over bean mixture.  Mix well.

Mince the clove of garlic & dice the scallion/onion & mix into mixture.

You can eat immediately or chill in the refrigerator until you would like to serve.   Enjoy!
