THREE BEAN SALAD

Source: Mary McDougall

 

This is a very fast and easy salad. Great to have on hand in your

refrigerator for a quick snack. It also packs well so it is easy to take

with you to work. This can be made as mild or as spicy as you like it by

changing the kind of salsa used.

 

1 15 ounce can black beans, drained and rinsed

1 15 ounce can kidney beans, drained and rinsed

1 15 ounce can garbanzo beans, drained and rinsed

1 small, mild, sweet onion, thinly sliced

2 stalks celery, sliced

1 tomato, chopped

1 cup salsa, mild, medium, or hot

2 tablespoons lime juice

1 teaspoon chili powder (optional)

 

Combine beans and vegetables in a large bowl. Place the salsa in a small

container, then add the lime juice and chili powder. Stir or shake to

combine. Pour over the bean mixture and toss to mix. Refrigerate at least

1 hour to allow flavors to blend.
