Mexican Bean Salad

3 steps
Prep:15min
It may be fall, but this Mexican Bean Salad is full of summer flavors. The fresh cilantro paired with the veggies, beans, and spices makes this a delicious and nutritious side dish. Even more, it features an oil free dressing, getting whole-food, healthy fats from walnuts. Finally, the beans add protein, fiber, iron, and folate to this vegan side dish.
