Anyone know of any easy pantry recipes? I have salad vinegar, onions, garlic... anything quick and easy to throw together with minimal pantry stuff? Nothing I need to cook. Just looking for a high protein easy snack for work - thank you!

    kidney bean salad.

    Kidney beans washed...
    sliced onion
    dice up carrots/snow peas/whatever raw veg you like.
    add corn if you have (tinned or whatever).
    add fresh herbs if you have any.

    season with salt, salad vinegar (lemon juice too if you have it) and 5ml of good olive oil.

    Kidney beans make great salads with almost anything. My mother's standard recipe was kidney beans, hard boiled eggs, celery, sweet pickles and lots of mayonnaise. Okay, so not low cal the way she made it, but if you replace most or all of the mayo with a dressing made from yogurt and mustard or something similar it would still be good. The hard boiled egg adds protein to it.
