Prepping healthy food can be laborious. If you’re like me, you need a quick, healthy, tasty dish that can you can feel good about. That’s when I go to this bean salad. Takes 5 minutes and lasts for a few meals!
I used to eat this every day out of the bowl for lunch. Or throw it on some rice and call it dinner. Wrap it in a tortilla and it’s a burrito.
Who’s gonna make it this weekend?
