Yummy salad! You mentioned that is goes well with grilled meat, so I heated up grilled chicken breasts from the night before, sliced them and added to the bean salad. This made a wonderful meal!

We loved the sweet and sour vinaigrette in this bean salad. This is a keeper. I did cheat a bit by using canned navy beans but it worked perfectly.

This Bean Salad really hit the spot alongside my aunt's beef ribs. We loved sweet/tart flavors packed into these beans. Even the kiddos loved it!
