Kidney Bean and Chickpea Salad

Submitted by: Terri Webber 
In Miami, Florida, Terri Webber picks this zesty salad when she needs a crowd-pleaser that's as close as her pantry. 'The dressing blends nicely with the combination of canned beans, tomato and onion,' she says. 'This salad tastes just as good when It's made a day ahead. I've never seen a bowl empty so quickly!'

This recipe was given to me by a vegan friend I had in college. It is the best bean salad I have ever tasted, and I love it because you can experiment with the ingredients and still have a mouth-watering side dish. I hope you like it!

A tasty, nutrient-packed salad that can be eaten by itself or as a side dish. Makes a great lunch the next day too! Add more lemon juice and olive oil if you like your salad to have a lot of dressing. Use garbanzo beans in place of kidney beans if you prefer.

A super tasty bean salad that can almost double as a main course. A three bean medley of red kidney, pinto, and garbanzo beans, tossed with red bell pepper, marinated artichoke hearts, and feta cheese. Served chilled after marinating for only an hour in a zesty oil and vinegar dressing.

This is one of my newest recipes (I trade salad recipes with my husband's aunt in Nebraska). I've found that it's a pretty salad and easy to pack up for picnics in hot weather.
