Four-Bean Salad image

"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!"

This four-bean salad is a great way to use up any २० beans you have in your pantry. It's also a very healthy and refreshing salad, perfect for summer. I used canned beans, but you could also use dried beans if you have more time.
