Healthy Pinto Bean Salad. Lately, we have been trying to eat from our pantry to save money. I had lots of pinto beans to use up and that is how this salad came to life.
I love this salad because it literally takes only a few minutes to whip up. It’s great for end of summer parties or any other gatherings. This healthy salad is vegan, gluten free and oil free!
If you don’t have pinto beans, black beans would work well too.
