I created this high protein salad to munch on for snacks, esp keeps me full before bed. As a figure competitor, I am required to eat clean and detox frequently, and this salad helps keep me feeling satisfied while eating reduced calories. I make a big batch and store it in the fridge to scoop out easily for lunches on the run. Ingredients:
1 (8 ounce) can black beans |
1 (8 ounce) can white beans |
1 (8 ounce) can chickpeas |
1/2 cup tomato, diced |
1/2 cup red onion, chopped |
1/2 cup shallot, diced |
1 bell pepper, chopped |
1/2 cucumber, chopped |
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil |
1/2 lemon (juice of) |
1 (8 ounce) can red kidney beans |
Directions:
1. Combine all ingredients in a large bowl.
2. Toss with olive oil and lemon juice.
3. Add fresh spices if you wish. (I suggest parsley and cumin).
4. Note: balsamic vinegar may be substituted for lemon juice.
