Bean salad

I make this salad quite often at my home and also when we have a huge gatherings. It makes a great appetizer. It is full of beans and finely chopped vegetables. This salad is rich in fiber and keeps you full for a longer time. You can make it to impress the mild eaters!

Here are the ingredients

Canned mixed beans- 2 cans

Canned sweet corn- 2 cans

Finely chopped onion, green peppers, red peppers, yellow peppers, tomato( deseeded), semi ripen Mango

For dressing- zesty Italian 

Salt to taste

Preparation 

Open the cans and combine corn and beans in a colander and rinse them under cold running water. Drain all the water and add them to a big mixing bowl. Add all the chopped vegetables and add two cups of zesty Italian dressing. Add salt to taste and refrigerate at least an hour before serving. You can add or remove the vegetables based on your taste, I love adding freshly chopped cilantro and mint. 

You can make it a day ahead and refrigerate it, it tastes much better and saves most of your time on the day of party. It tastes best with the scooped salsa chips. I went for a low calorie waffle thins ( they taste average with this combo to be honest, but as I am watching my weight I had no other option).
