Family Friday Four in a row. This week, a side dish. This is an incredibly easy three bean salad. The directions called for frozen beans, but I could not find frozen wax beans, so I used canned.
As written:
1 pkg frozen green beans
1 pkg frozen wax beans
1 can kidney beans (drained)
Cook the frozen beans, add to kidney beans. Add 1 thinly sliced onion, separated into rings.
Since I could not find frozen wax beans, I used 1 14.5 ounce cans of each type of bean, rinsed and drained. I also ommitted the onion entirely.
The recipe provided two dressings, I prepared using the following:
1/2 cup oil (I used olive oil)
1/2 cup vinegar (I used apple cider vinegar)
1/4 cup sugar
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
1/2 tsp oregano
Mix together and pour over beans. Refrigerate for 24 hours.
You can use any kind of beans. I (D. Thomas), like lima beans or canned butter beans.
When I made this, I used 4 cans of beans- Green, waxed, lima and butter.
