Three Bean Salad Recipe

Step 1

Bring a medium pot of water to a boil over high heat. Season it with salt. Cook the green beans for 3 to 4 minutes, until crisp yet tender. Drain the green beans in a colander and rinse them under cold water until cool. Let dry.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the green beans, kidney beans, chickpeas, celery, and red onion.

Step 3

In a medium bowl, whisk to combine the vinegar, sugar, salt, and pepper. While whisking, slowly add the olive oil, starting with a few drops and increasing to a slow stream to emulsify into the dressing.

Step 4

Pour the dressing over the bean mixture and add the parsley. Mix well to combine. Let sit for 30 minutes before serving. Season with more salt and pepper to taste.
