This is one of my favourite bean salad recipes. It's fantastic on its own or add some organic tortilla chips for a great appetizer. It's always a hit at parties, and even with the kids. This was one of my niece's favourite foods when she was 4 :).
Oh, did I mention it's also SUPER easy, and tastes even better the second day???
