Mixed Bean Salad

Mixed Bean Salad. This colourful salad is a quick, easy and nutritious salad, great for back to school lunch box or for a working lunch with a mix of beans in a honey dressing. For me, I eat with my eyes and I just love this colour combination that you achieve with the mix of red, black, green… Delicious! Why not give it a try? It’s just the marinade that takes the time…
