Sauce

  • 10 tbsp. canola oil (or avocado)
  • 6 tbsp. soy sauce

  • Salt
  • 2 tsp. turmeric
  • ½ tsp. cumin

Instructions

  1. Toss all the beans, grains, and veggies together.
  2. Whisk all the sauce ingredients together. Combine with salad mixture and chill until ready to serve. You can use more or less sauce based on your preferences.
  3. Chill in the Refridgerator for ar least 30min, although I recommend letting it sit overnight if you are using dehydrated beans to really pack in the flavour!
