My husband's family grows a lot of cute beans in their fields. I wanted to think up delicious ways of putting those beans to good use.

Use canned kidney beans or kidney beans cooked in sugar, whichever you prefer. You might be surprised at the idea of using beans cooked in sugar in a salad, but the other day I saw a TV program that showed that sweet beans are used in things like okonomiyaki and fried yakisoba noodles in a certain region, and I thought that it sounded plausible and tried it out. I make my own sweet beans that aren't that sweet (60-70 g of sugar to 1 cup (200 ml) of beans) and use that in all kinds of recipes. For 2 to 4 servings. Recipe by caramel-cookie

Bean and Asparagus Salad Bean and Asparagus Salad

I usually make simple bean salad with mixed beans like kidney beans, black beans, pinto beans, garbanzo and so on. It's so helpful to keep that kind of dish in your fridge. For this recipe I used great northern beans and I added asparagus. It makes lovely spring salad. It could be a healthy lunch by itself or with some eggs, chicken or salmon!

One of the 2 bean salads in my repertoire, and they're both delish! A creamy bean salad inherited from my mom and then this delight. I alternate between the two for holiday dinners. This one I'd sweet and tangy, And the varying textures of beans are spot on. Makes a great potluck dish too!

Green and White Bean Salad Green and White Bean Salad

Had some yellow pear tomatoes from my garden, the last harvest for this season, and I came up with this to use them up. I used can green beans, I used what I had on hand. If you don’t have white beans of any kind, kidney beans or black beans will work too. You do you, use what you have.

Great for summer lunches because it can made ahead and travels well. Avacado, feta cheese or italien dressing are encouraged additions. Also makes a nice side dish with meat from the grill!
