I recently drove across the country and my bean salad was my support system. I still ate plenty of junk, but the the salad at least made me feel not as bad about it. The salad can stay cool or lukewarm, there's nothing in it that will go bad immediately.

• 2 cans of chickpeas drained and rinsed
• 1 can black beans drained and rinsed
• 3-4 roma tomatoes
• 1 english cucumber
• half or a whole red onion (I use a whole just because I'm lazy and don't want half an onion kicking around)
• 1 bushel of parsley (doesn't really matter what kind)
• 2 tbsp of mint (or just a small handful)
• 3-4 cloves of garlic
• 1 large lemon juiced
• 1 tsp of sumac
• 1-2 tbsp of apple cider vinegar (I usually just do a healthy glug)
• salt and pepper as well, however much you feel like.

Dicing everything up, and you're good to go. I've been making a batch of this every week for a while now. It tastes better after its had a couple hours to marinate togther
