Cooking Recipe Calico Bean Salad

Recipe Ingredients

1 c Dried black beans

1 c Dried red beans

1 c Dried white beans

4 tb Red wine vinegar

2 ts Olive oil

1/4 ts Salt

1/2 ts Sugar

1 ts Lemon juice

1/4 ts Black pepper

1/4 ts Cayenne pepper

1 ea Red bell pepper, thinly sliced

1 bn Scallions, thinly sliced

6 ea Lettuce leaves preferably Boston | Bibb

Directions

Soak beans separately in small bowls for 4 hours or overnight; drain.
Cook in separate pots, covering each with 2 inches of fresh cold
water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer, covered, until
barely tender, about 1 hour. Don't overcook. Drain and cool beans by
plunging them in cool water to prevent the skins from splitting.
Drain and set aside.

Just before serving, combine onion, vinegar, oil, salt, sugar, lemon
juice, black pepper, and cayenne pepper in a large bowl; mix well.
Add beans, red pepper, and scallions; toss to blend. Divide among
four lettuce-lined plates.
