Kidney Bean Salad Preparation
- Start by draining and rinsing the kidney beans, black beans, and garbanzo beans thoroughly under cold water. Spread them out on a clean kitchen towel to dry for a few minutes, ensuring they are not watery.
- While the beans are drying, slice the Persian cucumbers into thin half-moon shapes approximately 1/8 inch thick.
- Finely chop the parsley and green onions using sharp kitchen scissors or a knife.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, apple cider vinegar, grated garlic, and a pinch of salt. Whisk until well blended.
- Once the beans are dried and the dressing is ready, add the beans, sliced cucumbers, chopped parsley, and green onions to the bowl. Gently toss until everything is evenly coated.
- You can serve the salad immediately or chill it in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to enhance the flavors.

Notes
