Lobia salad / Black Eye bean Salad

This easy-to-make salad with lots of rainbow-hued veggies, all combined with a super fresh lime-honey-butter dressing. It’s the kind of fresh, healthy salad you’ll find suitable with soups or to be stuffed into hearty sandwiches to satisfy your cravings in between meals

Lobia or black eye beans are cooked quite often in my kitchen, differently each time. Lobia curry with rice is such a dish that we can’t resist eating it frequently. But the salad with white lobia is also very satisfying, especially in winters when I get a little lazier to cook much. And then this warm lobia beans with seasonal veggies with a warm butter dressing becomes a real deal for me. The process is as simple as these beans look. A quick boiling of soaked beans and blanching of broccoli is needed, and then mixing with some other fresh vegetables and a delightful dressing with crunchy flax seeds and… it’s done with a bowl of health in hands
