Mediterranean Three Bean Salad

"I made this after being inspired by a wonderful salad served at our favorite local Mediterranean eatery and wanted to be able to make such an easy, healthy and delicious salad at home. You can use fresh, frozen, or canned corn, as long as you adjust the preparation as needed - if frozen, thaw before adding to salad; if canned, drain and rinse before adding. I am labelling servings as a side dish - if you want to serve as an entree, adjust ingredients accordingly."

  1. We enjoyed this healthy bean salad for lunch today. I used the cilantro option. DH and I both thought it needed a little more zip, so we added a splash of red wine vinegar to each of our individual servings. I'll enjoy this for lunch tomorrow. Thanks!
     
  2. I love bean salads-it's the first salad I ever learned to make. Subbed sundried toms<br/>for fresh and a red bell for green. We liked the cumin in the dressing because usually<br/>the bean salad I make has Italian seasoning. A scattering of cotija would have been good<br/>on the salad but alas had none on hand. Will make again in the summer when tomatoes and<br/>especially heirloom tomatoes are in season and plentiful. Reviewed for Veg Tag/February.
     
  3. A delicious & different three bean salad! I like the colorful presentation & think it would be a nice potluck salad. I made mine early in the day & after marinating the flavors really shined. Thank you for sharing the recipe! :-)
     
  4. This recipe came real easy all you have to do is make and enjoy Starrynews`s Recipe #456173 and use 1 leftover serving of it added to this recipe. You`ll get two for one that way! We like heat so I did add 1 jalapeno. Thanks!
