The Versatility of Beans

Beans are easy to store, a great source of protein and soluble fiber. You can purchase them fresh, canned, frozen, dried and in flour form. They make a great addition to soups, main dishes, side dishes, appetizers and snacks.

This is sure to be one of your favorite summer-time recipes.

1 can of each of the following, drained, and rinsed:
Yellow corn
White corn
Black eyed peas
Black beans
Small can of green chilies or a small can of diced jalapenos (if you like it hotter). You can also use fresh jalapenos, be careful to remove ribs and seeds.
1-1/2 to 2 chopped peppers of any color (I like to use red, yellow & orange for the color)
1/2 sweet onion chopped
3-4 ripe Roma tomatoes diced
Salt & pepper to taste
Fresh cilantro, chopped

Combine all of the above ingredients in a large bowl.
Add 1/2 bottle of your favorite Italian dressing (or make your own) & stir well.
Refrigerate overnight.
In the morning, stir and if dry, add slightly more dressing.
Serve with Tostitos scoops.

Enjoy!
