We really enjoyed this Bean Salad! I took it to a pot luck dinner and it was gone before I knew it!!! Everyone asked for the recipe. Anotner plus is I was able to put it together the day before and then just take it out of the refrigerator and go to the party. The dressing was perfect for the beans. Thank AGAIN, Darlene Summers, your recipes never disapoint me.

Delish & extremely easy side dish, especially for a cook out! However, I didn't even use the full 3/4 cup of sugar and still found it a little bit too sweet. I would suggest using half the amount of sugar, but I do like things a bit more on the vinegar-y side. Also - I added a green bell pepper for a little bit more crunch!

I'm trying salad-type recipes that I can serve when all the family comes this summer for our Anniversary. Tried your delicious Bean Salad last night and sure plan on it being on the menu. I cut back the sugar about an 1/8th of a cup and added some diced celery. I'll be making this one often! Thanks, Darlene Summers!

I would like to let you all know that I am no longer able to review your recipes that I have tried. since they changed the site around webtv does not supprt zaars new site.I have a webtv not a computer and webtv does not support the new recipezaar site. so I will no longer be able to review your great recipes,nor will I be able to put my own recipes on here.Please don't think I wouldn't like to review your recipes,it was one of the nice parts of zaar that I did enjoy doing. So please forgive!!! I am Married to the same guy for 40 years,I Have 2 beautiful Daughters, who have given me 6 grand and glorious grandchildren. I love to cook,in fact you could call it my favorite hobby My pet peeve is telemarketers,Every time I get busy with my recipe hobby one of them will call and knock me off the web,and of coarse I waste precious time getting back on.I am disabled,so I no longer work,and have plenty of time to pursue my hobby. My best dish I make is Lasagna but thats just because I love lasagna.I am also asked to bring No-Bake cookies at all of our potlucks, and linger-longers at church.Meat loaf is another often requested dish I am asked to bring...... NOT MY meatloaf but .... My husbands. He is as good a cook as I am,He can cook anything I can cook, and I can cook anything he can cook,but some things I make better,and some He makes better...So we do a lot of compromising at our house.
