Introduction

This is a sugar free version of My mothers famous bean salad. I use Splenda in order to make this sugar free but you could use any sugar substitute of your choice it doesnt have to be Splenda. It is very IMPORTANT to rinse the canned beans very...VERY well this will help reduce the sodium per serving by almost half as the beans are packed in a sodium based slime.....rinse very well and you can divide the soduim per serving by at least half.

Ingredients

2 cans yellow wax beans drained

2 cans cut green beans drained

1 can chickpeans drained

1 can red kidney beans drained/rinsed

1/2 cup canola or olive oil

1/2 cup splenda (sugar substitute)

1/2 cup white vinegar

1/4 cup chopped white or red onion

1/4 cup chopped green pepper

salt & pepper to taste

Directions

It is best to make this dish in the container you will store it in.

Drain and rinse all beans, put in bowl
add oil, vinegar and splenda
add chopped onions and green peper
add salt and peper to taste

mix well and store in fridge for a minimum of 8 hours before serving, the key to this dish is you need to stir and remix this dish every 1-2 hours as there is not alot of liqued and it needs to saturate all the ingredients, so stir often for the best result. This dish always tastes better after sitting in the fridge overnight.

Enjoy !
