Ingredients

Salad Ingredients

  • 1 14oz can blackeyed peas, (or 1/2 cup dried fully cooked)
  • 1 cup carrots, chopped
  • 1 cup bell pepper, chopped
  • 1 cup cucumber, chopped
  • 2 Tbsp green onion, chopped
  • 1/2 cup fresh parsley, or cilantro, chopped

Dressing Ingredients

  • 2 Tbsp tahini, or other nut/seed butter
  • 1/2 lime, zest + juice, or 1 Tbsp concentrate
  • 2 Tbsp water
  • 1 tsp cumin, and/or coriander
  • sea salt, or Herbamare, to taste

Instructions

  • Rinse & drain the beans. If you’re using dried beans, they must be fully cooked before you begin.
  • For the dressing, whisk together the nut/seed butter & lime juice until it thickens, then add the water & stir until it’s smooth. Mix in the zest and spices, and taste for seasoning. Add salt to bring the flavors together.
  • Toss the cooked beans & vegetables together in a bowl, drizzled with lime-tahini dressing. Serve over fresh greens or 1/2 cup cooked quinoa.
