Black Bean Salad

This black bean salad is one of my summer faves, but you can make it year-round if you’d like! it’s the perfect nourishing addition to any dinner, snack, or BBQ. 


TIPS & TRICKS


1. Don’t use canned chickpeas if not tolerated. I recommend soaking dried chickpeas overnight, then cooking them in the instant pot with one sheet of kombu to improve tolerance. 

2. If using canned chickpeas, buy BPA-free cans to prevent endocrine disruption.
