Time 15m

Yield 1/2 cup, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

1 (16 ounce) can garbanzo beans
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can wax beans
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can French style green beans
1/2 cup champagne vinegar
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon minced dried onion
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
3/4 teaspoon nectresse brand granulated artificial sweetener
1/2 teaspoon celery seed

Steps:

In a medium sized bowl, or the container you will store the salad, mix together the garbanzo beans, wax beans, and french style green beans.
In a small bowl, combine the remainder of the ingredients (champagne vinegar down to the celery seeds on this list above), and whisk until well combined.
Pour the liquid over the beans and mix to blend.
NOTE: Best if it can sit for at least 8-10 hours in the fridge prior to serving. If you must serve sooner than that, I recommend using about 2 TB of fresh onion, diced, in place of the dried minced onion.

3 BEAN SALAD (LIKE KFC)

3 Bean Salad (like Kfc) image

I found this recipe as a copycat to a national chicken franchise's recipe. Even people who don't like beans will LOVE them in this recipe. I don't always use green peppers because some family members refuse to eat them. Recipe is great with or without them. The salad actually starts to taste better the longer it sits in the dressing.
