Tasting Notes
This serves two if used as a main course and four as a side. If served as the main course serve with a nice, crusty, baguette with butter.
It’s bright fresh salad that is terrific – the corn sweet and crunchy, the Anaheim chili super crunchy with an earthy taste and just a smidgin of heat, and the beans are smooth and velvety. The dressing bright, fresh, the mayonnaise adding a silky touch.
Talk something easy, something fast, something delicious.
It’s my easy peasy bean salad.
