Navy Beans Salad Recipe – This navy Beans Salad is very healthy, quick salad idea. Made with Parsley & all healthy ingredients. Perfect vegan salad for the whole family to enjoy

Growing up, we always ate navy beans in a tomato gravy and then put on top of toast.

If I never ate another navy bean in my life, I would have never complained!

Now, here I am confronting my disdain for navy beans by putting them front and center in a delicious salad recipe.

Tips for Making This Navy Bean Salad

– Use can beans because it will be faster.

– Make sure you thoroughly drain the navy beans. The liquid in the can has extra salt in it

– Assemble this salad about 30 minutes before serving. Let the parsley work its magic for 30 minutes

– Use a firm tomato otherwise it will make this salad very soggy

– Cut all the ingredients smaller than the navy beans. This way, all the wonderful colors in this salad will stand out

– Salt is optional, but, I highly recommend it.

– Serve with pita chips or even inside a pita bread

If you like navy beans, try them in vegan baked beans, Ribollita or in a pressure cooker couscous salad.

Recipe inspiration

Growing up, we had a lot of British influence when it came to food. We used to call French fries “Chips” and potato chips were “Crisps”.

“Beans on Toast” was not appetizing at all.

When I left home, I dropped navy beans out of my diet completely.

For 20 years, I never ate it and I never missed it.

It only took me 20 years to confront navy beans, but, I have finally conquered it.

Yay!

With this recipe, I have made them look cool and sexy (Yes, I said SEXY!!!). Whoever said that vegan food isn’t sexy has never tried this vegan navy bean salad.

And nothing makes a meal sexy like adding my favorite tomatoes! Campari tomatoes can make every meal look deliciously sexy!

Campari tomatoes are not just for tomato soup or pickling. They are perfect for this salad because they have a little sweetness in them.
