4 BEAN SALAD RECIPE FREE
Wax beans? Navy Beans? Lima Beans? Black-Eyed Peas? Feel free to swap them in too. Dark Red Kidney Beans (you can use light red too)Īs you can see, it’s a delicious blend of 5 different types of beans, hence the name “5 Bean Salad” but you can totally customize this bean salad with different beans.I especially love this salad for large gatherings with various dietary restrictions because it’s vegetarian, vegan, dairy-free, low carb, naturally gluten-free and loved by all! Plus, it’s delicious at room temperature too so no worries about leaving it out on a party table. If you like, you can substitute the red wine vinegar for white wine vinegar. If you let it “marinate” wrapped in the refrigerator for 4 hours (or overnight), I think it tastes even better! It gives the perfect touch of tart and sweet that combines the flavors so well. This salad has a super simple salad dressing made with just red wine vinegar, olive oil, sugar, lemon juice, salt and pepper. It’s totally customizable because you can swap out the beans for your faves. I also like to refer to 5-Bean Salad as my “July 4th salad” because it’s perfect alongside a grilled hot dog on the 4th! My Mom has been making a variation of this 5 bean salad for decades, a true family favorite. MAKE IN ADVANCE (tastes even better on day 2)
