With graduation parties in full swing, a bean salad is easy and delicious to serve. I tweak the original recipe. I might add red pepper or other fresh veggies that can be marinated. The picture above shows, black beans, kidney beans, great northern beans, green beans. red onion, green pepper, and celery.
Because of the salt content in the beans, I drain and rinse them.
I’ve used my Better Homes and Gardens Cookbook recipe for years and have included it for you. I didn’t have wax beans available. Substitutes are easy, and I always double or triple the recipe.
ENJOY!

I love three-bean salad! I’ll have to try this recipe! Thanks!

Hi Deb. You can tweak it anyway you want. Enjoy! Pat 🙂

Sounds good and will go a long way in serving guests.

Bev, it sure will go a long way and can be made in advance. Thanks
for stopping by. Pat 🙂

Our mother always liked this recipe. Homemade is so much better than the canned version often purchased for large parties.
You gave me an idea. I will include three kinds of beans and the recipe when I prepare the list for the grocery bags to be filled for the church food pantry one week this month!
Thanks
Patsy Reiter
What a great idea! And the salad has lots of nutrients. Thanks. You
just gave me food for thought. Pat 🙂
