Extra Notes -

If the Chickpea Ranch isn’t your preferred sauce, we recommend substituting with the Avocado Goddess sauce for a similar basil & herb forward flavor, or the Beet & Basil sauce to add a refreshing taste of basil, orange, and acidity to this refreshing summer salad!

Green bean salad is a staple of American side dishes traditionally using mayonnaise, mushrooms, and other heavier flavored accompaniments. Our Vegan version substitutes mayonnaise with our herb & lemon-packed Chickpea Ranch sauce. The addition of chickpeas, cucumber, and radish creates a beautifully crisp, savory, & bright play on this classic dish without having to heat your oven. Utilizing our Chickpea Ranch sauce adds a beautiful burst of fresh dill, chive, and parsley, a bright note of lemon juice, and an impossibly creamy texture that is dairy, egg, and nut free and of course gluten free and top 8 allergen free as well! We recommend adding your favorite bacon or bacon substitute to this mix for an extra deep, umami flavor that is perfect as a side, salad topper, or as a main dish for hot summer days.
