Three Bean Pasta Salad Notes

If you prefer not to use your go-to canned Three Bean Salad, you can easily create your own mix with fresh green beans, yellow wax beans, and kidney beans. Don’t forget to add a delightful sweet dressing or vinaigrette! The ingredients typically found in canned versions include:

  • Green Beans
  • Water
  • Wax Beans
  • Kidney Beans
  • Sugar
  • Distilled Vinegar
  • Dehydrated Onions
  • Red Bell Peppers
  • Salt
  • Soybean Oil
  • Turmeric

I like to stock up on my favorite ingredients and cultivate my own herbs throughout the year, allowing me to whip this up whenever I please. Below, you’ll find the recipe for this tasty dish, perfect as a meal or side!

Deadheading the Basil
Use Home Grown Basil

It is best to use a home grown basil like ‘Tower’ or ‘Pesto Party’ varieties because they are small leaf and you won’t have to chop them up in this salad.
