This is the perfect summer salad.  It is quick and easy to prepare and stands up well in an outdoor picnic scenario.  Its vibrant colours create an irresistible invitation to dig in.  Most importantly it is very tasty and chock full of all the goodness that can be found in beans and vegetables.

    I tried this, Deb, and it’s really delicious. I gave Liam the recipe after he had a few bites and wanted more. He’s hoping the kids will like it too.
