SALADS/ THREE BEAN SALAD

       BY MARGARET LOUISE RICKETTS


 

Dad requested this recipe be added to the
Family Cookbook.  It is one of his favorite
salads that Momma made.
 

Ingredients:

1 can of green beans
1 can of waxed yellow beans
1 can of kidney beans
1/2 cup chopped green pepper
 (you can also add chopped
 red pepper)
1/2 cup chopped onion
1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
1/2 cup sugar 
1/4 cup vegetable oil

Rinse and drain all three cans of beans
and put into a glass bowl.
Add remaining ingredients and stir.
Chill in refrigerator for a couple of hours.

This will store well in refrigerator for 
two weeks.
 
Update to Mom's recipe: For a new taste treat, try the addition of:
1 cup drained white kernel corn
1 cup rinsed and drained black beans

Special Note:  
Since Dad was diagnosed with Diabetes, we have attempted to lower the sugar in all the recipes without changing the quality of the final product.  In this recipe, we use 1/4 cup sugar or sugar substitute.
