If you're looking for a black-eyed bean salad that you can take to the office in a small container, this recipe is for you. Light, refreshing, and nutritious, it fits perfectly in the office small container and keeps well for 1-2 days. The lemon and mustard dressing elevates the flavor, while the crunchy vegetables and herbs freshen it up.
How is it kept in the refrigerator?
The salad will keep in the refrigerator for up to 2 days in a tupperware container. The dressing does not “soak” the ingredients, so the salad is ideal for meal prep.
