FOUR-BEAN SALAD
"MY MOTHER gave me this recipe. It was actually a three-bean salad, but I added the garbanzo beans (which are also know as chick peas). It goes over big at potlucks because it's not too sweet and not too sour. Be careful to get the vinegar and sugar mixture just right-no guessing on the amounts!"

Tips:
- Use a variety of beans to create a more flavorful and colorful salad. Chickpeas, black beans, kidney beans, and lentils are all great options.
- Rinse and soak the beans before cooking to remove any excess starch and reduce the cooking time.
- Cook the beans in a large pot with plenty of water. Bring the water to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 1-2 hours, or until the beans are tender.
- Drain the beans and let them cool before adding them to the salad.
- For a more flavorful salad, marinate the beans in a mixture of olive oil, lemon juice, herbs, and spices before adding them to the salad.
- Add a variety of vegetables to the salad for extra flavor and nutrition. Some good options include chopped cucumber, tomatoes, onion, bell pepper, and corn.
- For a more protein-packed salad, add some grilled or roasted chicken, tofu, or tempeh.
- Dress the salad with a light vinaigrette or lemon-tahini dressing.
- Serve the salad immediately or chill it for later.
