Southwestern Dense Bean Salad

Ingredients

• black beans (Source does not specify whether canned beans should be rinsed or drained; comments ask this question but do not answer it.)
• pinto beans
• chickpeas (Also referred to as garbanzo beans in the comments.)
• chicken (Type and preparation are not specified.)
• corn
• fresh vegetables (The specific vegetables are not identified in the source.)
• Greek yogurt (Used as the base of the sauce.)
• seasonings (Specific seasonings are not listed.)
• lime (Likely used for juice, but the source does not specify the form.)
• chipotle sauce (Added for a smoky kick; the comments specifically mention chipotle peppers in adobo.)
• mayonnaise (The frame OCR visibly includes “mayo,” but the spoken transcript identifies Greek yogurt as the sauce base. The source does not clarify whether mayonnaise is also used or is an OCR error.)
• tortilla chips (For serving or scooping.)

Steps

1. 1

   Combine the black beans, pinto beans, chickpeas, chicken, corn, and fresh vegetables in a bowl. The source does not provide quantities or identify the specific vegetables.

2. 2

   Mix Greek yogurt with the seasonings, lime, and chipotle sauce to make the creamy, smoky dressing. The specific seasonings and amounts are not provided.

3. 3

   Add the dressing to the bean mixture and combine. The source does not specify whether the salad should be tossed gently or stirred thoroughly.

4. 4

   Serve the dense bean salad with tortilla chips for scooping.

The source provides no ingredient quantities, specific vegetable list, dressing proportions, preparation details for the chicken, or clear instructions for rinsing or draining the beans.
