Step 1

For the red chimichurri: Combine the pimientos, vinegar, parsley, garlic, paprika, cumin, and crushed red pepper in the bowl of a food processor. Pulse until finely ground. Add the oil and process until combined. Season with Adobo to taste.

Step 2

For the salad: In a large bowl, combine the red chimichurri, beans, olives, tomatoes, arugula, and green onions, and toss to coat. Season with additional Adobo to taste. Chill or let sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to develop. Add the avocados, if using, and toss gently to coat. Garnish with additional parsley and serve. Smart Storage for Freshness To keep your salad fresh when meal prepping, store it in an airtight container and keep the dressing separate until you’re ready to serve. Store the avocado separately as well to prevent browning. The salad will typically stay fresh in the refrigerator for 3 to 4 days. For easy tracking, label the container with the date.
