Ingredients

1cupchickpeas, drained and rinsed(skip for whole30 + paleo)
Quickly blanch green beans in boiling water for just a few minutes, until bright green. Drain, and ollow up with a quick ice bath. Drain again. Use [these tips] for tips on blanching if it's your first time using the technique. It's beyond easy!
Dice your veggies, puree your dressing in a blender or food processor, and combine!
Isn't that why we love salads? They're beyond easy. If you prefer extra-crunchy raw green beans to blanched, go for it! I find that blanching and then chilling them in an ice bath gives them the absolute perfect blend of crispness and tenderness. I do the same for my asparagus and many of my broccoli dishes too, I'm a blanch-a-holic!
