Basic Bean Salad

I remember eating bean salad when I was growing up. It is one of those things, which brings back fond memories of simpler days gone by. Recently, I was visiting at my parent’s home, when my Mom offered a helping o bean salad. I had not tasted this dish in many years. Not only did I enjoy a heaping portion of this favorite dish, but I also envisioned a video recipe to share.

There are numerous variations of bean salad. Mine is one to be added to the mix. While some may contain fewer ingredients than mine and others more, I can guarantee that you will enjoy the flavor of this simple dish.

One may frown upon my use of a pre-made salad, but this simplified prep time. You are welcome to hand cut the ingredients for your bean salad if you so desire.

The ingredients for this tasty dish are listed below along with the video recipe.

Enjoy!
