@eatingbirdfood: I’ve been all about hitting my fiber goals lately and the VIRAL DENSE BEAN SALAD makes it so easy. 🫘🙌 I can't believe it took me so long to try this recipe inspired by @violetwitchel! My spin is hearty, filling, and packed with fiber (and added protein). I love making a batch for the week because it makes a ton and holds up really well in the fridge. It's great paired with a protein for quick lunches and dinners, but also works as a side for late summer picnics and cookouts. Here is how to make it: • 3 small Persian cucumbers, or 1 ½ cups, chopped • ½ red onion, • 3 multicolor bell peppers, deseeded and chopped • 1 head of parsley, finely chopped • 2 cans of rinsed and drained beans, I did chickpea and navy beans • 1 15 oz can chickpeas • 1 15 oz can navy beans, or cannellini beans • ⅓ cup extra virgin olive oil • Juice of 1 lemon • ¼ cup high quality balsamic vinegar • 1 clove garlic, minced • 1 Tablespoon oregano • 1 teaspoon dijon mustard • 1 Tablespoon sea salt • 1 teaspoon cumin • 1 cup crumbled feta cheese • ½ cup chopped salami, I used Applegate Farms Genoa Salami 1. Rinse and drain the beans, then add them to a large salad bowl. Add the cucumbers, red onion, bell peppers, and parsley. 2. In a small bowl or jar, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, balsamic vinegar, garlic, oregano, dijon mustard, cumin, and salt. Pour the dressing over the salad. 3. Add the feta and chopped salami. Gently toss everything together until well combined and evenly coated in dressing. 4. Taste and adjust if needed with more salt, lemon juice, or a pinch of red pepper flakes. 5. Serve right away or chill in the fridge for 30–60 minutes to let the flavors meld. #densebeansalad #fibergoals #easymeals #mealprep #highfiberfoods
