Overall, an easy recipe to prepare. I thought it was pretty good, although there was a lot of sugar in the sauce (probably too much). I thought the sugar might entice the kids to enjoy some new vegetables, but I had no luck. The unanimously rejected it. So, it was an OK adult dish, but not passable as a kid dish.

i suggest mixing the green beans in last, as mine got all squished. Good recipe though.

I dont even like 3 bean salad, but made this dish for my parents who love it and I tried it and loved it! I never would touch any bean salads before but this is awesome. I used white beans instead of the garbanzo beans and it was really good. My sister who was also a 3 bean hater wants to get the recipe.

This is the best three bean salad I've ever tasted. I did leave out the green peppers because I felt this salad just didn't need it. I served it at my Memorial Day get together and it got lots of compliments.

I was looking for a Three Bean salad recipe and decided this was the one. I can't find yellow wax beans in my area but I did use, kidneys,cannelinis,northern whites,black beans and garbanzos, I followed others advice and used 1/2 cup each vinegar and olive oil. I only 1/3 cup sugar. This is a great salad and I will make it again.

I made this recipe but without Green Beans or Wax Beans (just didn't have them on hand). I also omitted the cilantro (lol.. I just saw this in the ingredients.. oops) and substituted Dijon Mustard for the dry mustard (didn't have that either). But even with my minor changes, I know that the recipe was perfect as-is. The DH didn't really care for it but he doesn't like dishes like this so his opinion doesn't count.. ;) I could eat this over and over again and for a high fiber/protein, low calorie side dish, I couldn't have asked for more.

Too sweet! But I fixed it with more vinegar. Will make again with some tweeks.

This salad is fabulous!!! I have ditched all my other 3-bean recipes in favor of this one... it has received high reviews from all our friends at parties and barbecues. I changed nothing in the recipe. Thanks, I love it.
