High Fiber Protein Salad!

Spring time is around the corner; a great time to get the family out for a picnic or a nice BBQ!

I love this salad because it can be used as a healthy BBQ side dish or a yummy wholesome lunch! So flavorful and so incredibly healthy! I recommend making it a day ahead of time so the flavors can really meld together.


Ingredients:

  • 1 can marinated Trader Joe’s Bean Salad
  • 1 can whole sweet corn, no salt added
  • ½ (12 oz jar) marinated artichoke hearts, chopped
  • 6-7 chopped green onions
  • 1 c chopped spinach
  • 1 c chopped cherry tomatoes
  • 2 tsp dried basil
  • 1 tsp cayenne pepper
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp crushed black pepper

Directions:
  1. In a large mixing bowl mix bean salad, corn, artichokes, onions, spinach, and tomatoes. Stir evenly.
  2. Add all seasonings to mixture. Mix evenly. Refrigerate for three hours. Serve.
