Spring Fling

Well hello, sunshine.

I felt like making something fresh, healthy and cheap. Oh and something that I could eat as soon as I get home from work that didn't require cooking- so this was made en mass to last a while.

Obviously you can change the quantities, make variations, do what feels right- this is just what I liked.

You'll need:

2 cans of chick peas (rinsed)
2 cans of red kidney beans (rinsed)
1/2 red onion (minced)
1 large shallot (finely minced)
1 red bell pepper (diced)
1 orange bell pepper (diced
1.5-2 cups of corn
garlic (to taste- finely minced)
parsley (to taste- minced)

For the dressing : Lemon juice, EVOO, sea salt and freshly ground pepper.





This is probably the simplest thing to make.

Throw the beans in the bowl...














Then throw everything else in the bowl...





Ooooh pretty.









Mix it all together and pour on the dressing...

and enjoy! It's healthy and delicious... yes, apparently that's possible.









So fresh so clean.

  1. Fresh, clean and ever so now.
    This recipe was like a breeze of Icelandic ash filled air blowing through the window of my Primrose Hill flat.
    Thank you so much Cupcake Soldier for lighting the flames of my gastro-desire this season.
