Mediterranean Beans - A Recipe for Superior Health
Mediterranean Beans
- 2 cans low sodium garbanzo beans
- 1 T cold-pressed extra virgin olive oil
- 1 T wine vinegar (try red or white)
- 1/2 onion (finely chopped)
- juice from 1/2 lemon
- seasoning to taste (try oregano, basil, thyme, and black pepper)
Rinse beans. Put all ingredients in large bowl and mix well. Serve at room temperature or chilled.
For Southwest Beans make these substitutions: black and pinto beans, coconut oil, and season with cilantro and hot spices (chili, cayenne, or jalepeno).
For Far East Beans make these substitutions: soy beans, sesame oil, and season with garlic, ginger, black pepper and Bragg Liquid Aminos (lower sodium soy sauce).
Our family loves these recipes because they are simple to prepare, are healthy, and taste great. We typically serve them as a side dish or as a salad topper. You can use the base recipe as a starting point and experiment with different beans, oils and seasonings. Be creative and enjoy!
