Nutrición y Cocina

While it is true that in summer a traditional stew or a legume dish may not be very appealing, beans are an ideal food for making a wide variety of salads and cold dishes that provide freshness on hot days, like this legume salad. Legumes are a very interesting and nutritious food, providing a good amount of protein and complex carbohydrates, as well as fiber, minerals, and vitamins. The simplicity of these recipes makes them suitable as a first course with minimal preparation, perfect for a day when we have little time to cook, as well as for taking in a container to work or school.

Chop the onion, sweet pickles, and red pepper into very small pieces and place them in a bowl along with the tuna in its juice. Place the beans and peas in a colander and wash well with water. Once clean, add to the bowl. To make the vinaigrette, mix the mustard with a little salt and vinegar. Finally, add the extra virgin olive oil while whisking the mixture (until a thick consistency is achieved). Pour the vinaigrette into the bowl with all the other ingredients and mix the legume salad. Store in the fridge until mealtime. Optional: Cook the basmati rice (20min) in steam and let it cool before adding it to the salad.
