bean salad
Marinated legume dish
Bean salad is a cold dish of cooked beans—often kidney beans, chickpeas, or green beans—dressed with vinaigrette and mixed with vegetables like onions, peppers, or celery.
Three-bean salad is the classic American version, combining kidney beans, green beans, and wax beans in a sweet-sour dressing.
Bean salads are potluck staples, holding up well at room temperature.
