Three Bean Salad

Front of card

Back of Card

After trying a few sweet recipes, I thought I'd try a vegetable side. My aunt makes a three bean salad so I thought I'd give it a shot. Although this one was similar, it was a little different. Next time I make it, I will probably cut back on the amount of oil and use whole green beans instead of the french cut style. Also, I couldn't find 1 pound cans of anything. They were all just under a pound. 

If anyone knows who Mari Hooley is, please let me know!

Here's my interpretation of the recipe:

Three Bean Salad

serves 10 

From the Kitchen of Mari Hooley

1 - 1 pound can French cut green beans

1 - 1 pound can yellow wax beans

1 - pound can red kidney beans

½ cup minced green pepper

½ cup minced onion

½ cup cider vinegar

¾ cup granulated sugar

1 teaspoon salt

½ teaspoon pepper

⅓ cup oil

Day before, if desired: 

Drain beans; place in glass bowl.

Add: green pepper and onion

Mix: oil and vinegar with sugar, salt and pepper.

Pour over bean mixture; toss.

Refrigerate, covered until served.

I hope you enjoy and give this recipe a second chance in your kitchen too.
