Notes

I stumbled across this gem in a supermarket meal kit. My family enjoyed it so much, we keep a bottle of This Little Goat went to Yucatán sauce just so we can make this salad. It whips up quickly with standard staple ingredients from the pantry and fridge. Use any beans you have available on hand, but a combination of sizes and white and black beans add color and interest.
