Pinto Bean Salad image

A bean salad that holds up to all your outdoor barbeques and grilling. This is a good salad with good flavors. Serve with fresh peppers on the side, so each person can kick up the salad to personal preference, or if you all like peppers, go ahead and add it to the beans before serving. Prep time includes soaking for 16 hours.

This was a great salad! I was looking for a new way to use up some leftover pinto beans, and this fit the bill perfectly. It was easy to make and very flavorful. I especially liked the addition of the corn and black beans. I will definitely be making

This salad is amazing! I've made it several times now and it's always a hit. The flavors are so fresh and flavorful, and the beans are cooked perfectly. I love that it's so easy to make, too. I usually add a little bit of chopped red onion and avocad
