Easy 3 Bean Salad

This recipe is my go-to picnic recipe, work pot luck party take along and simple summer dish. AND it cost's less than $5 to make and 3 minutes to put together with many things you already have in your pantry.

Easy 3 Bean Salad

• 1 can red beans
• 1 can garbanzo beans
• 1 can black beans
• 1 bunch of green onion
• salt and pepper to taste
• balsamic vinegar
• Olive oil

Drain and rinse all three cans of beans. Put into a bowl and add 2 tablespoons each of olive oil and balsamic vinegar. I do not have an amount listed because every ones taste is different. Use less or more to your liking. Same with the pepper and salt. Mix well and serve cold.

Variations:

Use Italian dressing (or make your own) and add instead of olive oil and balsamic or use a creamy ranch.

Switch up the beans. Don't like garbanzo? Any other bean will do. 

Add cherry tomatoes and fresh herbs for more punch.

Happy Eating!
