THREE-BEAN SALAD (EDAMAME, BLACK BEANS & BLACK-EYED PEAS)
This is a delicious, easy, and fresh-tasting update on a classic salad I adapted from "Gourmet Magazine" (March 2007). It's a great side dish that would compliment most meats and fish. If you want this as a main dish, add some crumbled feta. Recipe requires at least 10 minutes marinating time (and more is even better). It's a great do-ahead or single person recipe as it makes great leftovers!

3-BEAN GOOD LUCK SALAD WITH CUMIN VINAIGRETTE
This is a colorful variation of the black-eyed peas salad I always serve at my New Year's Day open house. You can cook the black beans and red beans together or separately. The black-eyed peas cook more quickly so should be cooked separately.

Steps:
- Place a strainer over a bowl and drain the black beans. Add enough water to the soaking water to measure 6 cups. Drain the red beans and discard the soaking water. Combine the black and red beans, water, all but 1/2 onion, and 3 of the garlic cloves in a large, heavy pot and bring to a gentle boil. Reduce the heat, cover and simmer 1 hour. Add salt to taste (beans take a lot of salt) and continue to simmer for another 30 minutes, or until the beans are tender but intact. Remove and discard the onions. Set a strainer over a bowl and drain. Measure out 1/4 cup of the broth.
- Meanwhile in a separate pot combine the black-eyed peas, remaining 1/2 onion and garlic clove, the bay leaf and 3 cups water. Bring to a boil, add salt to taste, cover, reduce the heat and simmer 45 minutes, or until the beans are tender but intact. Remove and discard the bay leaf and onion. Set a strainer over a bowl and drain. Measure out 1/4 cup of the broth and add to the black and red bean broth.
- In a bowl or measuring cup, whisk together the dressing ingredients. Combine all of the beans in a large bowl and toss with the dressing. Taste and adjust salt. At this point the mixture can be refrigerated, or the salad can be served warm or at room temperature.
- Stir the peppers and cilantro into the beans and serve.

EDAMAME BEAN SALAD
A quick and simple plant-based, vegan salad that is great at room temperature or cold. I make this protein-packed dish for my kids' school lunch 2 to 3 times a month. I sometimes use small white beans when out of garbanzos, and add avocado and/or cooked quinoa, tomato, or cucumber to change it up or stretch it. It is great for picnics, potlucks, and kids' school lunches, and can be side or main dish, served on a bed of spinach, or in a wrap.
