Football parties, potlucks and BBQ’s all have one thing in common for us and that means that we are asked to bring something. I don’t have any problem with this but sometimes fall short on time. Those are the times that I fall back on this trusty Black and White Bean Salad. I know it’s going to be a hit no matter the venue and it’s rare that I bring home leftovers.
I’ve asked myself often why is this Black and White Bean Salad such a hit? I have decided that it’s usually one of the most unique things on the menu and there is never competition of different bean salads. That’s always helpful!
I also like this salad because it’s very frugal if you stock up on a variety of beans when they are on sale. Cannellini beans can be found in any grocery store, and I make sure my cupboards are well stocked when they go on sale for $.88. That means this recipe is very frugal for a crowd!
