TANGY BEAN SALAD image

This bean salad is so cool and tangy. I had several canned goods that needed to be used soon, so this is what I came up with. Pretty doggone good for my first try at creating my own recipe for homemade bean salad!

  • Add remaining ingredients, gently folding into ranch dressing after each addition, until coated with the dressing.
  • Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight. (Stir the mixture a few times while it's chilling, if possible, and stir before serving.) Best served cold (but my husband is weird and likes to heat his in the microwave, lol!) Cover and refrigerate leftovers.
