Mixed Bean and Rocket Salad

August 3, 2015 by Pixie

Sometimes cooking just seems like way too much effort, I know. Those days I tend to just make myself avocado toast, seeing as I love avocados so much I eat them every day. But recently I’ve been trying to break out of this habit by making myself a super delicious salad that only takes 5 minutes to prepare, and requires nothing but a chopping board, but is still nutritious and filling. And this was the result! Perfect for sharing for lunch outside in the garden, or for a ridiculously quick and easy work packed lunch. And of course, always delicious as part of a Pixie Plate 😉

Serves 4

Ingredients:

150g rocket
1 can kidney beans
1 can chickpeas
150g cherry tomatoes, or 15 sun dried tomatoes (in oil)
2 medium avocados
A small handful pine nuts

What to do:

  • Drain the beans and rinse
  • Cube the avocados and halve the cherry tomatoes/sun dried tomatoes
  • Toss all the ingredients together
  • Serve with some basil pesto, or a simple dressing of lemon juice, olive oil, a pinch of salt, and balsamic vinegar
