Ingredients

  • 2 cups kidney beans, drained and rinsed
  • 2 medium lemons, juiced
  • 1 small red onion, diced - (only use half if you don't love onions like me..)
  • ⅓ cup parsley, finely chopped
  • ⅛ - ¼ teaspoon fine black pepper
  • ½ - ¾ teaspoon sea salt (fleur de sel used)
  • 2 tablespoon nutritional yeast
  • ½ cup carrots, sliced or diced
  • a drizzle of buttery extra virgin olive oil (optional)
  • 1 clove garlic, minced (optional)
  • ¼ teaspoon lemon zest (optional)

Instructions

  • Add all the ingredients to a large mixing bowl and toss well until all the beans are saturated.
  • Pour the bean salad in a serving bowl, cover and place in the fridge to marinate for at least a half hour. Serve chilled. This is delicious the next day as well. Keeps for about two days in the fridge.
