This is one that my mom really likes. I'm honestly not real big on it because I don't care much for beans, unless they are baked or green! :) However, I do know many people do like this recipe and I hope you will, too.

I am just looking for a good old fashioned recipe for a three bean salad.

This is my mother's recipe; she got it from one of her friends about 1950. Does that qualify as "old-fashioned"?

1 can kidney beans (rinsed and drained well)

Advertisement


1 can garbonza beans (rinsed and drained well)
1 can green beans (drained well)
1 can yellow/wax beans (drained well)
1 red or yellow pepper, seeded and sliced
Few thin slices of onion

Cover with:

1/2 cup vinegar
1/2 cup oil
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder (more or less to taste)
Pepper to taste

Mix and allow salad to marinate overnight in refrigerator. (Any combination of beans is good; depends on what you like.)

Here is the one I use all the time. got it from "Favorite Recipes of Home Economics Teachers" cook book.
1 can green beans, drained
1 can dark red kidney beans, drain and rinse
1 can yellow wax beans, drained
1 onion cut in rings, and halved
1/4 tsp whole celery seed
Toss with dressing. Marinate several hours.

Dressing:
1/2 cup vinegar
1/2 cup veg oil *(I use half water)
3/4 cup sugar
bring to boil and pour over beans.
*NOTE: I find that cutting the oil in half does not effect the taste of salad, but saves on oil and calories.

You can purchase 3-bean salad at the grocery store, much easier and it is delicious.

I am looking for a 3 Bean Italian salad, I had it while in the hospital and it tasted fantastic. I know hospital food usually doesn't taste good, but this was! I know it had white beans (navy or great northern) and pimentos and a great dressing, the rest I don't remember. Anyone have a real good one?



TIA

I've bought a bean salad similar to what you describe at the Sam's Club in Springfield MO. It might be the one you are looking for.

It comes in a large jar (almost a gallon) but will keep a long time in the refrigerator.
