This salad is great at fish frys. We cannot eat seafood without this.
Drain beans. Add eggs, pickles, pimento. Add mayo to consistency you desire. Easy to alter if you like more pickles or more eggs.

Assorted beans and pasta make a delicious main dish salad. This page contains a 3 bean pasta salad recipe.
I have a large jar of bean salad which was bought at Costco. I'm not practically fond of it (my husband bought it), but if anyone has any ideas on how to dress it up, please share. Thank you.

I drain the liquid, add my own salad dressing, also add feta cheese.
My step-mother really likes this salad! Great if you like different varieties of beans.
I am just looking for a good old fashioned recipe for a three bean salad.
By Jackie
This is my mother's recipe; she got it from one of her friends about 1950. Does that qualify as "old-fashioned"?
1 can kidney beans (rinsed and drained well)
Cover with:
1/2 cup vinegar
1/2 cup oil
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder (more or less to taste)
Pepper to taste
Mix and allow salad to marinate overnight in refrigerator. (Any combination of beans is good; depends on what you like.)

Here is the one I use all the time. got it from "Favorite Recipes of Home Economics Teachers" cook book.
1 can green beans, drained
1 can dark red kidney beans, drain and rinse
1 can yellow wax beans, drained
1 onion cut in rings, and halved
1/4 tsp whole celery seed
Toss with dressing. Marinate several hours.
You can purchase 3-bean salad at the grocery store, much easier and it is delicious.
My Mom use to make this back in the 1950's.
Three Bean Salad
1 can waxed yellow beans
1 can cut green beans
1 can kidney beans
1/2 cup chopped green onions
Mix and place in refrigerator to marinate at least one hour before serving.
My mother has always loved bean salad. Not one of my personal faves, but definitely one of hers.
Drain all the beans well and mix together. Then stir in the onion, celery and pepper. Stir in dressing. Let stand several hours or overnight to allow the flavors to blend.
This is one that my mom really likes. I'm honestly not real big on it because I don't care much for beans, unless they are baked or green! :) However, I do know many people do like this recipe and I hope you will, too.
Combine all ingredients in a large bowl. Let set in covered bowl several hours or overnight. Drain and serve.
Drain all canned ingredients. Add part of vegetable liquid to salad dressing. Let stand overnight.
