Mediterranean Inspired Kidney Bean Salad

This Mediterranean inspired kidney bean salad recipe is a healthy, delicious and inexpensive dish. The perfect salad that is light on calories, yet full on flavor. Kidney beans are among the highest fiber-containing legume and are also an excellent source of potassium and magnesium.

Be sure all beans are drained and rinsed no matter if beans are freshly boiled or just opened up from a can.

It can also be easily adapted to a Tex-Mex style by changing the lemon to lime, parsley to cilantro and adding ground cumin and/or chili powder!
