When you try a new flavor, you can't make a special recipe fast enough...such was the case today. Hello Cucumber Balsamic Vinegar, welcome to my world...well, not just yet, but in June 2021 California Balsamic will release this spectacular flavor. My creation is only 355 calories, 47.8g carbs, 10.2g fiber, 37.6g net carbs, 9.9g protein and 14.6g fat. These macros do not include the Salad base, which are a mixture of Romaine, Kale, Broccoli, Red Bell Pepper, Carrot, and Green Onion. This is unbelievably refreshing, and will be a staple in my Salad rotation!
Ingredients for one Salad (multiply for more servings)~
1/4 cup dried Garbanzo Beans (sub with 3/4 cup cooked)
1 small (approximately 3oz) ripe Avocado, peeled and chopped
1/2 fresh Cucumber, diced
1/2 Roma Tomato, diced
2 Tablespoons Cucumber Balsamic Vinegar (Californiabalsamic.com)
Bed of Greens and Veggies~Romaine, Kale, Broccoli, Carrots, Red Bell Pepper, Green Onions
Seasoning as desired
Add Beans to bowl and cover with water by a few inches, soak over night, drain, add to pot and cover with water by a few inches, bring to boil, reduce to simmer, add lid and simmer for 2 hours, drain, and add to top of mixed Greens, along with Avocado, Cucumber, Tomato and Balsamic, season as desired. Enjoy :)
