Sounds yummy! We make a similar salad for barbeques: a can of kidney beans, a can of corn (not creamed or anything), salt, pepper, olive oil and balsamic vinager to taste, chives or herbs if you like. There's no meat in it, but it's sure tasty!

This was so simple yet delicious. I used a couple of cans of 6 bean blend instead of the kidney and navy beans -- it was great. :-)

The simple "dressing" gave the dish a nice, subtle flavour.

Thanks for posting this great and easy recipe.
