The Best 2 Bean Salad Ever

This is honestly the best salad Joe has ever made. I tasted it and it just blew me away. We had gone to the store and Joe saw a pre-made chickpea salad and edamame salad. He used his phone to take a picture of the ingredients. I came home one Saturday and he had made this whole recipe, just by looking at the ingredients (how talented is that).

Joe's Awesome 2 Bean Salad (just too cool for the third bean)


fresh cilantro/basil/oregano/parsley (chopped)
1 lb. edamame (frozen)
1 lb. corn (frozen)
1 lb. (13 oz. can) garbanzo beans, drained
2-3 red/yellow peppers, diced
1 lg. onion, diced
6-7 ribs of celery , diced
7-8 green olives, chopped
several tbsp. of oil
1/2 - 3/4 c. apple cider vinegar
3 tbsp. lemon juice
coriander, cumin, turmeric, salt, pepper to taste
dash red pepper flakes

Boil the frozen corn and edamame for 15 minutes, then drain and cool. Mix everything together. That's it! Super easy. The most time intensive part of the recipe is dicing the veggies.

This is an amazing, amazing salad. It's full of protein, so it's good for you, but it tastes so good it's hard to believe it's healthy. It's refreshing and light yet packed with flavor. It's a very big recipe of we were able to eat it with several different meals, plus we each took it for lunch a few times. If you like summer salads this is a must try!
