Bean Salad Recipes

There are probably more bean salad recipes that haven't been invented yet as opposed to those that have.

These salads are often called 3,4,5,or 7 bean.

<<>>

The beauty of these dishes is that you can just keep adding stuff until you have enough to fill your bowl.

The list of ingredients is endless for all the versions you could make. The usual recipes call for 3-7 different types of beans, usually canned, some oil/vinegar dressing, some veggies and spices.

I'm going to show you a simple one to start with, using a can of 6-bean variety rather than one can of each bean. This is a great way to get a good variety of beans without having to make a giant salad.
