Marinated beans that pack a punch! Refrigerate this salad overnight and see if it gets more tasty. You can vary the recipe by substituting black beans for the kidney beans, if you like.

I'm not a huge fan of bell peppers, but I loved this salad. The balsamic vinegar really mellows out the flavor of the peppers and makes them more palatable. I'll definitely be making this again.
