Greetings dear friends, welcome to my blog. Today I am once again joining the weekly contest Qurator's: Hive Top Chef! | The Bean Challenge. One of the most common ways to eat beans is in soup—which, by the way, is my favorite—and they’re also great in a stew served with rice; my mom used to make that dish all the time. However, I think a bean challenge would be to make something really different and fun—not to mention how nutritious it can be.
I decided to make something delicious and gluten-free with my favorite beans—well, one of them—so I used white beans.
While I was at the supermarket, I found the ingredients I needed to make a white bean salad, plus a perfectly ripe avocado to add the finishing touch to this dish. It’s the first time I’ve made a bean salad, and I was delighted with the result. I won’t say any more—check out the recipe and let me know what you think in the comments.
