Three Can Salad

Submitted by mandabears

"The first time I tasted this salad was in Monikendam the Netherlands. Very easy and delicious and authentic. I like to serve this with thin sliced black bread and steamed potatoes. Cook time is refrigerator time."

We were looking for something different for a starter for Easter Sunday dinner, this sure fit the bill. Lots of great taste. Couldn't find canned potatoes, so just boiled some in small pieces, worked great. We will make this again, great taste and a good company dish, thanks for sharing.
