Kidney Bean Salad
"You'll find bowls of "Kidney Bean Salad" (it's more of an appetizer or dip, than a salad) served throughout New England at many quaint taverns and pubs, where you can spread it on a cracker and enjoy it along with a cocktail or two. It is positively addictive!!"

Yet another recipe that I cut in half & prepared as a trial run to see if it was worth making in the future as part of a finger food buffet for one of the monthly groups I host ~ This great 'salad' will definitely have a place on the buffet! Thanks for sharing this wonderful keeper recipe! [Made & reviewed in Healthy Choices ABC Tag]
RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
<p>I recently celebrated my 19th anniversary living in SW Florida. I moved here from Massachusetts, just north of Boston. As much as I miss family back home, I truly love living here - the beaches, the tropical beauty, the people, and the weather (except the hurricanes!). Everyday is just another day in Paradise. I work at the new international airport here in Fort Myers. I have an opportunity to meet many different and interesting people from around the world. I've had an interest in cooking since I was a little boy, following my grandmother around the kitchen. Since I wasn't blessed with any artistic or musical talent, I think cooking was my way of being creative. My passion is my family and friends. My second passion is cooking for them. My favorite way to entertain is informally...brunches, cookouts, and small dinner parties. Just relaxing, enjoying each other's company, some good food and drink, and a little fun are the only rules of the house.</p>
