This is a light but satisfying gluten free lunch, which is pretty versatile so you can use what you’ve got in the cupboard / fridge.
Gluten free lunch – Aduki bean salad
400g tin aduki beans – preferably in water with no salt/sugar
A handful of crunchy leaf such as chinese leaves, pak choi or similar, finely chopped
A spicy leaf such as rocket, watercress or similar, finely chopped
A fresh herb – basil or flat leaf parsely best, finely chopped
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons lemon juice
Finely ground black pepper
Salt to taste
Mix it all together and tweak the flavours to your preference by adding more or less oil, lemon juice, pepper and salt.
From start to finish, 5 minutes? A pretty quick, highly nutritious gluten free lunch. And because it’s so healthy, I’m having mine with last night’s leftover homemade beefburgers. I know, crazy.
