I am the third generation using this wonderful recipe. It is soooo simple and delicious. Its not overly oily like most are. Overnight chilling time not included in preparation time.

Time 20m

Yield 1 salad, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 (15 ounce) can green beans
1 (15 ounce) can wax beans
1 (15 ounce) can lima beans
1 (15 ounce) can kidney beans
1 (15 ounce) can garbanzo beans (chickpeas)
1 onion, chopped (I add the next day about an hour before serving, other wise it seems too strong)
1 green pepper, chopped (my grandmother's recipe calls for this but we never put it in as we don't care for it)
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup vinegar
3/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
1 teaspoon dry mustard
1 -2 teaspoon celery seed

Steps:

  • Drain all the beans and combine in a large bowl.
  • Heat (but do not boil) (I do it in the microwave for about 1 minute) vegetable oil, vinegar, sugar, salt, pepper, dry mustard, and celery seed.
  • Mix with bean mix and let stand overnight.
  • Add onion/pepper about an hour before serving.
