BEAN SALAD

I am always running out of chick peas and a mixed salad in a can that I can't always find in stock. I have in the past bought a mixed bean can and realized that it didn't come with the dressing. That dressing is gold! Although it has pieces of onion and is acidic enough to sting the eyes on opening, Princess Pirate loves it! It's my go-to protein with pasta (PASTA IS NOT A MEAL!) when on hand because it only takes the time a can-opener takes to open it. 

I have tried a few italian dressings and PP prefers plain red kidney beans to anything I have come up with. Last night I finally found a combination dressing that made a kidney bean salad that I enjoyed eating!

From The Amazing Legume page 87, I modified the black bean salad recipe.

540 mL can of red kidney beans
2 T canola oil
2 T white vinegar
1 minced garlic clove
1/2 tsp dijon mustard
dash of dried oregano
