Gina: This colorful salad is one of my go-to recipes when I need something to satisfy a crowd, whether at a church potluck supper or a backyard barbecue. The champagne vinaigrette gives the beans a fresh, zippy flavor. F
Ingredients
- Kosher salt
- 3/4 pound green beans, trimmed and halved
- 3/4 pound yellow wax beans, trimmed and halved
- One 14-ounce can dark-red kidney beans, drained and rinsed
- One 14-ounce can black-eyed peas, drained and rinsed
- One 14-ounce can garbanzo beans, drained and rinsed
- 1 bunch scallions, white and light-green parts, thinly sliced
- 1 red (or orange or yellow) bell pepper, diced
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves, for garnish
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh marjoram or oregano leaves (optional)
- 1 recipe Champagne Vinaigrette
- Freshly ground black pepper
- Hot sauce
Instructions
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add a generous sprinkling of salt and the fresh beans, and cook until the beans are just tender, about 8 minutes. Drain the beans in a colander, and shock in ice water to stop the cooking process. Drain again and set aside.
- Place the fresh and canned beans, scallions, bell pepper, parsley, marjoram, and Champagne Vinaigrette in a large bowl, and toss to combine. Season the salad to taste with salt, pepper, and hot sauce.
