Buttery avocado, sweet succulent peas, crisp fine beans, fiery chilli and citrus lime infused with fresh mint; Avocado Fine Bean Salad.
Ravish into something fresh and yummy.
This dish will burst your belief that vegan food, can’t be easy to rustle up.
Make this:
- When you’ve had a brisk walk out and an energising dish to satiate your hunger pangs is what the doctor ordered
- When you fancy light and refreshing dish that’ll be a nice side to the main you serve
- When you’ve an uber barbeque and need a lush dish before you flip open your next drink
Avocado Fine Bean Salad was inspired when picking freshly plucked pea pods from the local farmer’s market and rushing home on my bike to make this.
I adore this Avocado Pea Bean Salad dish. I have actually re-tweaked it since it first introduced it on this site. Sweet succulent garden peas are an excellent source of folic acid, particularly beneficial for pregnant women.
Avocado Fine Bean Salad is vegan and paleo.
