CAJUN SPECIAL BEAN SALAD
This recipe doubles or triples really easy. I make it to take to office parties and family outings. You can adjust the amount of pepper to make it as spicy as you want. At our house, we tend to like things a little spicy, so I have cut the amount of pepper down so that it won't burn your mouth. Sometimes I use this as a substitute for potato or pasta salad. Try making it with low-fat mayonnaise for a lighter salad.
