Equipment

Can Opener
Strainer
Knife
Bowl
Tupperware container

Ingredients

4 Celery Stalks Medium sized
1 Orange Bell Pepper Can use green, red or yellow
4 Tomatoes I used Campari tomatoes
1 15.5 oz can Garbanzo Beans Also known as Chickpeas
1 15.5 oz can Black Beans
1 15.5 oz can Red Kidney Beans
1/4 cup Italian Dressing I used Ken's Italian Dressing

Instructions

Wash and Dry celery, bell pepper and tomatoes.
Open cans of beans, pour into strainer to drain and rinse with cool water.
Medium dice celery, bell pepper and tomatoes into equal sized pieces.
Add beans, celery, bell pepper and tomatoes into a bowl or Tupperware container.
Add about a 1/4 cup of Ken's Italian Dressing and mix to combine.
I suggest taste testing to determine if more dressing is needed, based on personal preference.

Notes

You can adjust this recipe to your liking in so many ways:

Sometimes I add different vegetables
- Sliced Cucumber, Green beans, Diced Carrots or Onions
Use different beans, such as Cannellini beans(white kidney beans)
Switch out the dressing to fit your preference
- Even a simple oil and vinegar would work great (if you do this, I would recommend adding 2 cloves of fresh garlic, minced)

Allowing the bean salad to marinate in the dressing for a couple hours is preferable to allow the juices to combine together. However, it is still very tasty to enjoy right away!
