MARINATED VEGETABLE AND BEAN SALAD
This recipe was inpired by a salad dressing recipe that I made for 1-2-3 Hits Tag, recipe #372633 - I tagged the dressing, but had no lettuce, so I came up with a salad to go with it. It turned out fantastic, so I'm posting it here. Cook time does not include overnight marinade time. Yes, it makes alot, but it's easily scaled down. Note that for easier measuring, 4 tbsp = 1/4 cup.

Number Of Ingredients 12
Steps:
- Combine black beans, corn, green peppers, red peppers and onions in a large bowl. For dressing, combine the lemon juice, parsley, cumin, garlic powder, salsa and oil. Pour dressing over salad and toss lightly to combine. Refrigerate until service. Optional: sprinkle with shredded Monterey Jack cheese on top before serving.
Tips:
- Use a variety of beans: This will give your salad a more interesting flavor and texture. Some good options include black beans, kidney beans, pinto beans, and chickpeas.
- Soak your beans: This will help to soften them and make them more digestible. If you're short on time, you can use canned beans. Just be sure to rinse them well before using.
- Make your own marinade: A simple vinaigrette or lemon-herb dressing is all you need to flavor your bean salad. You can also add other ingredients to your marinade, such as garlic, herbs, or spices.
- Marinate your beans for at least 30 minutes: This will give the flavors time to penetrate the beans.
- Add other vegetables to your salad: This will make your salad more colorful and nutritious. Some good options include tomatoes, cucumbers, onions, and bell peppers.
- Serve your salad immediately or chill it for later: Bean salad is a great make-ahead dish. It will keep in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Conclusion:
Marinated bean salad is a delicious and healthy dish that is perfect for summer gatherings. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. With a variety of beans, vegetables, and dressings to choose from, there are endless possibilities. So next time you're looking for a light and refreshing salad, give marinated bean salad a try.
