Three Bean Salad with Nopalitos

This salad is a take on the traditional canned three bean salad. The different colors and sizes add interest, but you can use just one type of bean for convenience.

Ingredients

• 2 nopal pads, grilled or broiled and cut into bite size pieces
• 1 cup cooked white beans
• 1 cup cooked kidney beans
• 1 cup cooked black beans
• ½ bunch green onion, chopped
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1 tablespoon oil
• 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
• 2 teaspoons lemon juice
• Salt and pepper to taste

Directions

Combine all ingredients and stir well to mix. Let salad sit for at least one hour before serving.
