Easy Gut Friendly Bean Salad

Women require an adequate amount of protein each day for muscle building, hormone health and energy production, but sometimes it is hard to find good sources of protein besides chicken, steak or eggs. This is why I love beans. They are super easy to prepare, high in protein and fibre (great for gut health) and cheap when compared to meat.

This is a perfect lunch or dinner side to eat with plenty of nutrients that support energy production, healthy hormones and gut health. It can be prepared in under 10 minutes and stores well in the fridge so you can make 2 servings ahead of time - It actually tastes better the next day!
