Colorful Bean Salad

I am really fond of bean salads of all types, including bean salsas. I didn’t used to be. In fact, I remember a time when I tasted bean salad from a can (first time I’d had bean salad) and thought to myself that it had a lot of potential, but not with the flavor of metal added.

Bean salad is so much better when made from scratch! The vinaigrette is fairly straight-forward, a simple light sweetened type, but it can vary with more or less sweetness and a great deal of seasonings to give it variety. Not to mention the whole array of different things you can add to a bean salad. Such as this recipe, which uses olive, although that is not typical of the basic bean salad.

When presented with many options to make a salad your own, you may even find yourself adding things like grilled chicken, and then spooning some of the bean salad along with the meat over chopped greens for a main dish salad. SO the sky really is the limit if you use your imagination and let it run wild.

And as always, I do hope you enjoy!
