Two salads are trending right now – Sliced Cucumber Salads + Dense Bean Salads so I made a combo of the two and let me tell you this salad is epic!! Two types of hearty beans and lots of incredible ingredients give this salad so much flavor and it’s a salad that will keep you full! The vinaigrette is super light and ties everything together perfectly. The beauty of this salad is it saves well and it gets better the longer it sits as the flavors marinate! Recipe below!
