Bean Salad Recipe – A Fresh, Healthy and Spicy Bean recipe
Bean salad is a great way to get the health benefits from beans. Beans are a good source of protein, they’re full of fiber and are said to “pull” cholesterol out of your body. This bean salad recipe has the fresh crisp flavor of summer with fresh peppers and corn. You’ll love the hint of chili and cumin – but don’t worry, you don’t have to make this bean salad recipe too spicy – you can make it to your taste by adjusting the seasoning. This salad can be made with any type of bean. In this video, Rita uses Chick Peas, Kidney beans and red beans, but you could use any type. Black beans, white beans or red. This simple salad gets some crunch from celery and chopped bell pepper, roasted corn as well as a few green onions. Rita always talks about “Cooking by Color”. A great way to get veggies in to your diet. And of course this video is full of kitchen tips to make your trip to the kitchen even easier. Lightly seasoned with Cumin and Chili powder, this bean salad has a great southwestern flair. A light vinaigrette finishes off this delicious bean salad. Enjoy Rita’s Bean Salad Recipe.

amazing, i will def make this.
thanks
i don’t think I’ll be eating all of that but it looks delicious!
kids will never eat that expecially with bell peppers in it!….get real……
Kids that are raised on healthy food will eat this. If they are McD’s regulars… probably not.
Obviously it is easy to chg the recipe – I don’t like green bell pepper and use red instead. yum!
Jarthome, my whole family, including kids, love this recipe, bell peppers and all. I agree, it all depends upon what types of food you regularly offer your children.
This is one of my favorite recipes!
mmmmm
Dried Beans and olive oil would be best for our health. Less salt and omega fats.
I just use italian dressing.
I made this and it was good for a day,then the olive oil turned like a glue and had to throw it out.If there was a way to dump the olive oil( I love olive oil) in this recipe it would of been a whole lot better and lasted longer.Next time i might just make a fat free Italian dressing and use it instead.
@koolbossjock That’s what happens when you refrigerate olive oil. :/
Ya i know,i thought maybe being deluted with Balsamic would stop that from happening.Maybe I just use my home made salad dressing.Man that salad looked like wax.lol
@koolbossjock
sorry I’m not a cook. I usually eat cereal and canned foods 3 meals a day (college diet)
but if this helps any,
Maybe instead of pouring your olive oil dressing into the big bowl of salad, put it into a separate bottle as if or bowl and spoon it into the serving size of bean salad that you are ready to eat.
but like i said, I suck at cooking, so there may be something that I’m not factoring in that may make my idea obsolete.
good luck
stop making stupid food
I made this salad tonight, with a few modifications for lack of ingredients – left out the chili powder, used garlic salt, and white balsamic instead of red wine – it was delicious!
I think it’s awesome you are going to give this to kids! When kids learn to grow up eating veggies and recipes like this, they’ll grow up thinking healthy food can be tasty and that’ a gift that can have a lifetime of benefits.
its stupid to remove seeds from tomatoes, actualy this seeds gives nice flavour
@jarthome My 2 year old loves salads. I have been giving all the veg sticks like carrot, pepper, cucumber etc. to him as a snack.
