Summer Bean & Veggie Salad

Hello everyone,FullSizeRender_2

It’s officially Spring, but the weather just can’t make up it’s mind. One day it’s hot, the next it’s cold. But I’ve been craving summer foods lately. I recently made a hefty portion of summer bean & veggie salad to snack on throughout the week. This is one of my goto quick and easy lunch meals. It takes about 10 minutes to make and there are very few steps to the instructions! This is the epitome of no fuss vegan cooking!

Check out the recipe below, and let me know what you think. Also, what’s your favorite summer time recipe?

Cheers!
