Bean Side Recipes

This mediterranean bean salad can be combined with tuna or grilled chicken and served over a bed of arugula or crisp romaine for a hearty salad that provides plenty of protein and fiber.

This is something I started making in university to go with just about everything and can be served hot or cold. I suggest playing with the spicing and ingredients, I often put in mushrooms for example.

Fast and delicious combination that is low fat and packed with nutrients!

Good for company or just for every day, this side dish is an excellent, low calorie accompaniment to grilled chicken, roasted turkey or broiled salmon. Perfect for any season.

Great on Turkey Hotdogs!

Use as filling for omelets or burritos, or to top sweet potatoes.
Excellent with a dash (ok, a lot of dashes) of Franks hot sauce to any of the above.
