Hearty Three Bean Salad Recipes

EASY MEDITERRANEAN BEAN SALAD

Easy Mediterranean Bean Salad image

Easy three bean salad recipe packed with Mediterranean flavors from fresh herbs, capers, and a zesty Dijon garlic vinaigrette. Instead of mushy canned green beans, use fresh steamed ones, or swap them out for another type of bean. I chose to use cannellini beans! After dressing the bean salad, allow it to chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving, so that the beans can absorb the zippy dressing.

HEARTY THREE-BEAN-AND-HAM SALAD

Hearty Three-Bean-and-Ham Salad image

Growing up in the South, we were surrounded by three-bean salads, which are something of an aquired taste. We ate up Mama's beans and ham hocks, but give us kids a cold bean salad and we'd be out the backdoor. Well, now we've seen the error of our ways-plus canned beans seem to be better these days, less mushy and more flavorful. Here we toss them with spicy cheese and leftover ham for a main-course salad that's delicious served with Moist-and-Easy Corn Bread (page 45).

Yield serves 4 to 6

Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

1/2 cup olive oil
1/3 cup red wine vinegar
2 teaspoons sugar
Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 pound thick-cut ham steak (from your supermarket's deli counter), cut into 1/2-inch pieces
One 15-ounce can kidney beans, rinsed and drained
One 15-ounce can chickpeas, rinsed and drained
One 15-ounce can cut green beans, rinsed and drained
2 scallions (white and light green parts), chopped
4 ounces pepper Jack cheese, cut into 1/2-inch pieces (optional)
1 head Bibb lettuce

Steps:

To make the dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, vinegar, sugar, salt, and pepper.
In a medium bowl, combine the ham, kidney beans, chickpeas, green beans, scallions, and pepper Jack cheese (if using). Add the dressing and gently toss until combined.
For each portion, arrange 2 leaves of Bibb lettuce to make a bowl on a plate and fill with the bean salad.
This salad gets better as it sits (up to 4 days, refrigerated), so it's perfect for picnics and potlucks.
