Dried vs. canned beans – I usually cook a pot of dried beans about once a week and then use them for a couple of meals during the week. However, if you don’t have time or want to cook up a pot of beans, you can still make this salad using canned beans. If you use canned beans, here is how you can prepare for this salad.
Type of bean - This salad is so versatile that you can really use just about any bean you want. We've made it with bolita, pinto, black beans and navy beans.
Salad Ingredient - Don't hesitate to use or replace the ingredients listed here. A composed salad like this really comes down to what you have in the refrigerator.
