Three bean salad
 
 
This is one of my favorite recipes with chickpeas. You can use boiled edamame in the place of green peas. Canned beans are very convenient for beans dishes though, I like to use a lot of beans that I cook myself. Cooking dry beans from scratch can be easy. Just soaking and cooking! It’s best to let this salad sit in the fridge for a few hours. So the flavors can be harmonious.
