Here's my sister-in-law's recipe for Bean Salad!. We all love it! Because of the type of dressing, you don't have to worry if it's not refrigerated for hours!
1 can green beans, drained (I normally get french cut)
1 can wax beans, drained
1 can kidney beans, drained (I prefer dark, but light's fine)
1 can garbanzo beans, drained
1 can artichoke hearts, drained and quartered
1 large red onion, slivered or diced
1 large green pepper, chopped
Dressing/Marinade - combine well in separate bowl
3/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup vinegar (red wine or cider)
1/2 cup salad oil
1/4 tsp!. salt
1/4 tsp!. pepper
Gently toss all veggies together with marinade!. We normally make a double recipe for the dressing so it covers all the veggies!. If you make a single recipe, toss regularly so they all get the flavor!. Keep refigerated until use!
Enjoy your cookout and family members!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
