Yield depends on how many cans and how large they are

Number Of Ingredients 9

an assortment of equal amounts of canned beans including black beans
red kidney
chick peas
white beans or any other beans you like. I like to make it colorful. You can make this recipe as large as you want with as many cans of beans as you want. Fresh steamed corn taken off the husk or cans of corn in water drained. Add enough corn so that it sands out in the bean mixture (if you are using 6 cans of beans use 2 cans of corn). Several stalks of celery diced
a chopped red onion
a handful of cilantro leaves chopped fine
crushed garlic (as much as you like) a good quality olive oil
balsamic vinegar
salt and pepper to taste.

Steps:

  • Put the beans in a strainer and wash with cold water until all the sauce that was in the can is off the beans and shake off the water and put the bean mixture in a large bowl. Add the celery, drained corn, cilantro, garlic and red onion. Drizzle on the olive oil and mix to coat. Add the balsamic vinegar, salt and pepper. Mix well and refrigerate for an hour before serving.

This salad was a hit at our potluck! I followed the recipe exactly and it was perfect. The lemon-tahini dressing was so flavorful and the beans were perfectly cooked.

Easy to make and very tasty. I used canned beans and it still turned out great.

I had some leftover mixed beans from a soup and this was a great way to use them. I also added some chopped red onion and cilantro, and used a red wine vinaigrette dressing. It was delicious and refreshing!
