This salad is great at fish frys. We cannot eat seafood without this.

My step-mother really likes this salad! Great if you like different varieties of beans.
My mother has always loved bean salad. Not one of my personal faves, but definitely one of hers.
Drain all the beans well and mix together. Then stir in the onion, celery and pepper. Stir in dressing. Let stand several hours or overnight to allow the flavors to blend.
This is one that my mom really likes. I'm honestly not real big on it because I don't care much for beans, unless they are baked or green! :) However, I do know many people do like this recipe and I hope you will, too.
Drain all canned ingredients. Add part of vegetable liquid to salad dressing. Let stand overnight.

I am just looking for a good old fashioned recipe for a three bean salad.
By Jackie
This is my mother's recipe; she got it from one of her friends about 1950. Does that qualify as "old-fashioned"?
1 can kidney beans (rinsed and drained well)
Cover with:
1/2 cup vinegar
1/2 cup oil
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder (more or less to taste)
Pepper to taste
Mix and allow salad to marinate overnight in refrigerator. (Any combination of beans is good; depends on what you like.)

1 can green beans, drained
1 can dark red kidney beans, drain and rinse
1 can yellow wax beans, drained
1 onion cut in rings, and halved
1/4 tsp whole celery seed

You can purchase 3-bean salad at the grocery store, much easier and it is delicious.
