Mexican Bean Salad

November 24, 2012 By Carolyn Berry Leave a Comment

Have you been experiencing lunchbag letdown lately?  Say goodbye to the blues and mix it up with this fresh, high-fiber Mexican bean salad!    What else is great about this salad?  It doesn’t require you to turn on the oven or the stove!  HurRAW!!  Incorporating some raw food into our diets adds important living enzymes which are not present when food is heated above 118 degrees F.  These enzymes are good for our cells, providing us with energy and vitality.

This is another one of my ‘go-to’ salads.  I love making a batch of this for lunches.  It keeps well for 2 days in the fridge.  Feel free to play around with the ingredients by incorporating any raw veggies that you love.  Too easy isn’t it!?
