Mediterranean Bean Salad

Step 1

In a serving bowl, combine the prepared kidney beans, chickpeas, onion, celery, cucumber, parsley and dill.

Step 2

Make the lemon dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, salt and pepper flakes until well blended. Pour the dressing over the salad and stir until combined.

Step 3

Serve immediately for the most flavor, or let it marinate in the refrigerator, covered, for a couple of hours or longer. Leftovers will keep well, covered and refrigerated, for up to 4 days. If necessary, wake up leftovers with a little sprinkle of salt or drizzle of lemon juice.
