"COULDN'T BE EASIER" THREE-BEAN SALAD



Perfect recipe for those who enjoy eating delicious food more than preparing it! Letting the frozen vegetables thaw instead of cooking them cuts down on the prep time and helps keep them crisp. Feel free to mix and match with different types of beans; I've also used garbanzo beans, white beans, black-eyed peas, and kidney beans in this recipe.

Number Of Ingredients 18

16 new red potatoes
Coarse salt, for boiling water
1 red bell pepper, seeded and chopped
1/2 red onion, chopped
1/4 cup chopped fresh mint, a couple of handfuls
1/4 cup chopped flat-leaf parsley, a couple of handfuls
3 tablespoons red wine vinegar, eyeball the amount
1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil, eyeball the amount
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 pound fresh green beans, washed and cut into 1/3
2 rounded teaspoons Dijon mustard
2 teaspoons sugar

1 (15-ounce) cans red kidney beans, rinsed and drained

Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Place red potatoes in a pot and cover with water. Place pot on stove, cover and bring to a boil. Liberally salt water with coarse salt. Place a colander over boiling pot. Take your first ingredient from the bean salad, 1/2 pound cut fresh green beans, and place them in the colander. Cover the colander with pot lid. Steam beans 5 minutes while potatoes boil below. Remove beans and cold shock under running water. Drain green beans and set aside.

Coarsely chop potatoes and return them to the warm pot. Add peppers, onions, mint, parsley and vinegar to the pot. Toss to allow the vinegar to absorb into the potatoes.
