Recipe: Four Bean Salad

Sorry. No photo. You'll have to take my word for it that's it is very attractive.

NOTE!! The recipe calls for 2/3C sugar. Mr. Big Food used 2Tbsp and that was plenty.

“Best if made 2 or 3 days beforehand.” 

FOUR-BEAN SALAD 
1 can green beans, drained
1 can yellow wax beans, drained
1 can lima beans, drained
1 can kidney beans, drained
1 C celery, chopped
1 C bell pepper, chopped
1 C white onion, chopped
¼ C water
½ C oil
2/3 C sugar (or less, to taste)
2/3 C white vinegar
3 Tbsp wine vinegar
1 Tbsp garlic vinegar
1 tsp black pepper
1 tsp salt

Combine celery, bell pepper, and onion in a mixing bowl. Bring water, oil, sugar, vinegars, black pepper, and salt to a boil, and pour over vegetables. Add all beans. And chill in refrigerator until ready to serve. “Will keep from 3 to 6 weeks.”
