Ingredients

For the salad

1 cup kidney beans (canned or cooked)
1 cup green beans (trimmed and cut into bite-sized pieces)
1 cup wax beans (canned or cooked)
½ cup chopped onion (red or white for more zing)
½ cup diced green pepper
½ cup chopped celery

For the dressing

½ cup vegetable oil (Wesson or your favorite)
½ cup vinegar (white or apple cider)
½ cup sugar

Instructions

Prep the Beans: If using canned beans, drain and rinse them well under cold water to remove excess sodium.
Mix the Dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the vegetable oil, vinegar, and sugar until the sugar is dissolved.
Combine the Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the kidney beans, green beans, wax beans, chopped onion, diced green pepper, and chopped celery.

🥗 For extra flavor, let the chopped veggies sit for a few minutes before adding the dressing. This allows their natural juices to mingle with the beans!

Dress the Salad: Pour the dressing over the bean and vegetable mixture. Gently toss until everything is coated evenly.
Chill and Serve: Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving to allow the flavors to meld.

❄️ This salad can be made a day in advance! It tastes even better after marinating overnight, so it's perfect for meal prep or potlucks.

Variations

Add Protein: Toss in some grilled chicken or chickpeas for added protein and make it a full meal. 🍗🥙
Herbed Twist: Fresh herbs like parsley, cilantro, or dill can add a delightful flavor boost!
Spicy Kick: Add a chopped jalapeño or a dash of hot sauce to the dressing for a zesty punch.
Sweet & Savory: Mix in some dried cranberries or fresh corn for a hint of sweetness and crunch.

Enjoy your delicious and colorful Three Bean Salad! 🌈🥗
