Ingredients:

  • 3 cups cooked Camellia Brand Great Northern Beans
  • 3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup chopped carrots (1 large, peeled)
  • 1 cup chopped plum tomatoes (2 large)
  • ½ cup chopped yellow bell pepper (about ½ large)
  • ½ cup chopped celery (1 to 2 ribs)
  • 1 cup leafy green herbs, such as ½ cup chopped basil and ½ cup chopped fresh parsley

Prep time:
30 minutes
Yield:
5 cups

Directions:

3. Add tomatoes, bell pepper, celery, herbs, oil, black pepper and Italian seasoning. Toss lightly, so the beans don’t smash. Taste and adjust seasoning, if needed.
