Ingredients
- 200 grams Green beans
- 200 grams Wax beans
- 150 grams Edamame (shelled, cooked)
- 0.5 medium Red onion
- 1 small Red bell pepper
- 15 grams Fresh parsley
- 4 tablespoons Olive oil

- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 clove Garlic (minced)

Directions
Step 1
Trim the ends of the green beans and wax beans, then cut them into bite-sized pieces (about 2 inches long).
Step 2
Bring a pot of water to boil, and blanch the green beans and wax beans for 2-3 minutes until crisp-tender. Drain and transfer them to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process. Drain again and set aside.
Step 3
Dice the red onion and red bell pepper into small pieces. Finely chop the parsley.
Step 4
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper to create the dressing.
Step 5
In a large mixing bowl, combine the blanched green beans, wax beans, cooked edamame, diced red onion, red bell pepper, and chopped parsley.
Step 6
Pour the dressing over the vegetable mixture and toss well to evenly coat everything.
Step 7
Taste and adjust seasonings if needed. Cover the salad and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Step 8
Serve chilled and enjoy your low-carb three-bean salad!
