Spinach Salad Pic: Priya Q

Its a quick meal in itself, and the ingredients are such that one can ready them as convenient and store for later assembly! I find this salad healthy and light…a must try for everyone!

Spinach – 1 cup (washed and chopped fine)

Small red Beans – 3/4 cup (boiled and cooked with little salt)

Baguette/ Bread slice – 2 nos

Onion – 3-4 tbsp (thinly sliced)

Oil – 1 tbsp

Salt and Pepper for seasoning

Lemon juice – 2 tsp

1. Dip the bread slice in a little water and squeeze out the water immediately
2. To a pan add oil and heat
3. Add the bread pieces and gently saute for few minutes
4. Add spinach and baked red beans and stir
5. Add the seasoning. Spinach has salt content so check before you add more salt
6. Remove from the burner
7. Add sliced onions and lemon juice & close the pan for few minutes so that the onions get roughly steamed
8. Serve

*If you want you can also add cooked rice to it. But since carbs are present in the form of bread I avoided it.

** You can also add scrambled eggs or cooked meat for variety

Till next time…. happy cooking!
