Lately I have been doing things like using other veggies in place of rice or grains.In this warm weather have made things like cold 3 bean salad variations.Found a brand of healthy good tasting green beans,beets and other beans.One time I made it with drained canned green beans and drained rinsed white beans and chopped red onion,sea salt and parsley.2 parts olive or avocado oil to 1 part ACV or lime or lemon juice some dried parsley and sea salt.Can soak overnight . Recently made again with green beans and drained cooked sliced beets and you could also switch up with garbanzo beans. can also make a kind of cold salad using thawed frozen green peas instead of pasta and whatever protein kind of thing.I have made it with tuna or egg salad but you could make it with tofu salad.So the peas and beans become the bread or pasta substitute.
