Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams Green beans
- 200 grams Wax beans
- 150 grams Edamame (shelled, cooked)
- 0.5 medium Red onion
- 1 small Red bell pepper
- 15 grams Fresh parsley
- 4 tablespoons Olive oil
- 3 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 clove Garlic (minced)
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
Instructions
Trim the ends of the green beans and wax beans, then cut them into bite-sized pieces (about 2 inches long).
Bring a pot of water to boil, and blanch the green beans and wax beans for 2-3 minutes until crisp-tender. Drain and transfer them to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process. Drain again and set aside.
Dice the red onion and red bell pepper into small pieces. Finely chop the parsley.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper to create the dressing.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the blanched green beans, wax beans, cooked edamame, diced red onion, red bell pepper, and chopped parsley.
Pour the dressing over the vegetable mixture and toss well to evenly coat everything.
Taste and adjust seasonings if needed. Cover the salad and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Serve chilled and enjoy your low-carb three-bean salad!
