Tomorrow is my 6th anniversary of switching to a whole-food non-animal diet. I continue to enjoy that whole approach, and yesterday I made a terrific bean salad with black sorghum, with guacamole as the dressing.

Mixed Bean Salad (from “The Book of Antipasti”)

2/3 cup dried cannellini beans, soaked overnight and drained
2/3 cup dried black-eyed peas, soaked overnight and drained
2/3 cup dried lima beans, soaked overnight and drained
1 small onion, chopped
2 tablespoons chopped oregano or 2 teaspoons dried leaf oregano
1 tablespoon chopped Italian parsley
Italian parsley sprig to garnish

Dressing:
¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar (one can substitute red wine mixed with apple cider vinegar, or just use cider vinegar)
2 garlic cloves, crushed
Salt and freshly ground pepper

"Place beans in separate pans. Cover with cold water, bring to a boil and boil briskly 10 minutes, then reduce heat and simmer, covered, about 1 hour until just tender. Drain, rise briefly under cold running water, then drain and transfer to a serving dish.

To make dressing, mix all ingredients together in a jar with a tight-fitting lid. Add onion and dressing to beans while they are warm. Stir and cool to room temperature. Cover and chill until served. Just before serving, stir in oregano and parsley and adjust seasoning. Garnish with Italian parsley sprig.

Makes 6 servings."

Black Bean Salad with Black-Eyed Peas

December 29, 2021 — last updated December 7, 2024 by Kalyn Denny

"Ingredients:

one 15 oz. can black beans
one 15 oz. can black-eyed peas (see notes)
1 red bell pepper, chopped into pieces the same size as beans
1 green bell pepper, chopped into pieces the same size as beans
1 small red onion, chopped into pieces the same size as beans
1 bunch cilantro, chopped (see notes)
salt and fresh ground black pepper to taste

Dressing Ingredients:

1 tsp. Spike seasoning or other all-purpose seasoning blend
1 tsp. ground cumin
1 tsp. ground Ancho chile pepper (see notes)
3 T fresh lime juice
2 T white balsamic vinegar (see notes)
6 T olive oil
salt and fresh ground black pepper to taste

Instructions

Cook frozen black-eyed peas if that's what you're using.
For canned beans, simply drain black beans and black-eyed peas into a colander placed in the sink, rinse with cold water until no more foam appears, then let beans drain at least 5 minutes.
While beans drain, put Spike seasoning, ground cumin, and ground Ancho chili pepper in a small bowl, then add lime juice and white balsamic vinegar and stir to combine. Whisk in the olive oil until dressing ingredients are well combined.
Remove drained beans from colander (blot dry with paper towel if they still seem wet) and put them in a bowl large enough to hold all the salad.
Mix 1/4 cup of dressing mixture into the beans and let them marinate while you chop the peppers, onions, and cilantro.
Chop red and green bell pepper and red onion into small pieces about the size of beans.
I cut off the stem and bottom end of the peppers, cut out the seeds, then cut a slit down one side of the pepper and flatten it out for an easy way to cut small pieces like this.
Wash cilantro (or green onions) and spin dry in salad spinner or dry with paper towels if needed, then chop cilantro (or slice green onions.)
Add chopped peppers and red onion to the beans.
Then stir in chopped cilantro or sliced green onion.
Add additional dressing until the salad is as moist as you’d like it. (You might not need all the dressing, but save it to re-moisten any leftover salad after it’s been refrigerated.)
Season with salt and fresh ground black pepper to taste, and serve.
The salad can also be made ahead and chilled before serving.

Notes

If you prefer to use frozen black-eyed peas for a firmer texture, just cook them according to package directions.

I used my fresh-frozen lime juice.

Cilantro is definitely optional, replace with sliced green onion or simply omit.

I love the flavor of ground Ancho chile, but use any chili powder or ground chile you have on hand that's not too spicy.

You can use white wine vinegar with a pinch of sweetener if you don't have white balsamic vinegar."

and red bean salad 😊

Double IPA with high alcohol content, but I don’t feel much alcohol 🤔
I like this dry taste with mild citrus flavor, but its so-called tropical flavor seems to be bothering me a little bit 😉
Now I think I should’ve added persimmons to the red bean salad 🤔
