Roasted sweet potato and black bean salad is a perfect quick vegan, healthy recipe. It takes about 30 minutes from beginning to a ready meal.

Don't you just love quick and easy recipes? I know I do. My recipes tend to be just that. Simple, quick to make and with a few ingredients. They don't necessarily meet all those requirements at the same time.
Sometimes they call for more ingredients than I'm mentally ok with, but are super easy and quick to prepare. Sometimes with few ingredients but takes longer than a half an hour that, again, is my mental limit.
This roasted sweet potato and black beans salad has it all. It takes only 30 minutes or less if you are working fast haha. Uses only 7 ingredients and it´s perfectly satisfying lunch or dinner meal.
