Hello my friends,
Today I want to give you a recipe which will give you an energy boost as well as keep you sustain for a good few hours. It really is an ideal lunch , that is packed with goodness and nutrients.
Red kidney beans are a source of fiber-rich carbohydrates .They also contain folate, magnesium, iron, zinc and copper.
This is a very easy vegan recipe and you can replace the kidney beans with chick peas or any other beans, that you like.

Here is what you need:
- 1 cup of cooked kidney beans (freshly cooked or from a tin )
- 1/2 lettuce
- 3 leaves of swiss chard
- 2 tomatoes
- fresh mint
- juice of 1/2 lemon
- pinch of salt and pepper
- some olive oil
First chop your lettuce, Swiss chard and tomatoes. Then add he cooked beans.I cook mine from scratch , but the ones from a tin will do fine as well. In another bowl mix chopped fresh mint , olive oil and the lemon juice. Pour over and enjoy !
Overall this combination works very well together .
Thank you very much for being here and all your love and support,
lots of love
