Give this salad a Southwest spin when you use chopped fresh cilantro instead of the parsley.

Easy Easy for a summer salad. I luv bean salad & have made it this way for years. I add yellow wax beans and no ripe olives. I don't care for the black olives. They add color so maybe I might try green or greek olives.

Tastes like your average 3-bean salad. The nice thing about it is that the preparation is so easy and quick. You could throw it together in the morning and then go to work, and have your side dish ready when you come home.
