Ingredients

  • 200 grams canned kidney beans or canned black beans
  • 80 grams lettuce of your choice
  • 1 tomato if in season or ½ cup tomato sauce if out of the season
  • 1 shallot or ¼ onion
  • 3 Tablespoons guacamole (check out my 4 ingredient guacamole recipe)
  • 1 Tablespoon lemon juice or lime juice
  • 1 Tablespoon extra virgin olive oil + 1 teaspoon for the pan
  • Pinch of cumin powder
  • Pinch of sea salt

Optional :

  • 25 grams corn tortilla chips make sure they are gluten free
  • 50 grams cheese of your choice If you're vegan or dairy free choose a vegan cheese. If you're not, you can use dairy cheese of your choice.

Instructions

  • Peel and dice the shallot (or onion) and make it sweat with a little bit of olive oil in a skillet.
  • Cut the fresh tomato in pieces and add it to the skillet. (Use tomato sauce if tomatoes are not in season). Add the kidney beans to the skillet and a pinch of cumin. Let it cook for 5 minutes.
  • In the meantime, in a salad bowl, put the guacamole on one side and add the lettuce next to it.
  • Once cooked, transfer the tomato and beans to the salad bowl, next to the lettuce (not on top of it, otherwise it will cook it).
  • If you want to add cheese, cut it into small pieces and add them to the bowl. Finally, drizzle with lemon juice and olive oil. Serve immediately with some corn tortilla chips and voila!
    Bon appétit!
