Quick Bean Salad


You will need just 10 minutes to make this dressingless salad, like a side dish to slice of meat or Empanada or fish... Don't hesitate to experiment in your kitchen and change the white beans into red beans, it's totally your call! I have chosen white beans to make a contrast in colors. The taste is incredible and not to mention the nutritious values.

Pork Empanada


Empanadas are very practical meal for lunch, dinner or even for a dessert if you stuff them with something sweet. For this occasion, I have made pork filling and a little bit of cheese which melted and gave empanadas an extra taste. Very simple dough and relatively quick meal can be served with salad of your choice... My choice of salad was a Quick Bean Salad and I haven't made a mistake with it. Great combination!
