For the Ultimate Bean Salad:
Drain all cans. Place the beans, chickpeas and corn in a colander and rinse gently, allowing excess water to drain – you do not want the beans to be too wet.
Place the bean mixture into a large bowl and combine with the pineapple, red pepper, tomato, cucumber, onion and celery. Season to taste.
For the Zesty Green Vinaigrette:
Place all ingredients into a jug or bowl and blend with a stick blender until very smooth and bright green. Pour the vinaigrette over the salad and serve.
