3 Speedy Refrigerator Side Salads

By criscrossqz

Y'all know I keep glass bowls of side salads in the refrigerator: for snacking, and easy prep for lunch & dinner. The Tomato/Cucumber/Onion Salad is a favorite of Beth's ... Papa Billy likes the Japanese Cucumbers alot ... and the Bean Salad is so easy to add to, and works as a great "pot-luck" dish too

Ingredients

• Tomato/Cucumber/Onion:
• 2 tomatoes, chopped
• 1 hot house (English) cucumber
• 1/2 onion, chopped
• chopped bell pepper (optional)
• Any vignarette/Italian dressing, but I like Gerard's Champagne dressing best

Basically, you just mix everything together and chill!!

Bean Salad: This keeps for WEEKS! Just keep adding another can of another bean as it depletes...
