Tomato Bean Salad

Tomato Bean Salad
makes about 6 cups

Dressing:
1 TBSP extra virgin olive oil
1 TBSP balsamic vinegar
1 TBSP fresh lemon juice
1/4 tsp garlic powder
freshly ground black pepper

Salad
1 15oz can kidney beans
1 15oz can white beans
1 15oz can cut green beans
1 c diced fresh tomatoes
1/2 c diced yellow bell pepper
1 TBSP chopped fresh dill

1. Whisk dressing ingredients together.

2. Thoroughly rinse and drain beans.

3. Toss beans gently with remaining ingredients and dressing.

4. Chill 1 hour before serving.

I ended up using black beans instead of white, since I'd forgotten to cook white beans. I also used red bell pepper because it was less expensive than yellow. Salad was wonderful in spite of changes.

I got this recipe from some work junk mail about newsletters we could buy regarding employee wellness and health. This was the only part worth saving - I don't remember exactly who it was from either...
