16 new red potatoes
Coarse salt, for boiling water
1 red bell pepper, seeded and chopped
1/2 red onion, chopped
1/4 cup chopped fresh mint, a couple of handfuls
1/4 cup chopped flat-leaf parsley, a couple of handfuls
3 tablespoons red wine vinegar, eyeball the amount
1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil, eyeball the amount
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 pound fresh green beans, washed and cut into 1/3
2 rounded teaspoons Dijon mustard
2 teaspoons sugar
1/4 cup red wine vinegar, eyeball the amount

1 (15-ounce) cans red kidney beans, rinsed and drained
