Patio Salad

Posted Sep 12 2008 5:05pm

Recipe from the Illinois Council on Renal Nutrition. This one sounds like a good candidate for summer picnics or potlucks any time of the year. I'd be tempted to use frozen corn and beans, just because I like the flavor and texture of frozen vegetables better than the canned. Just thaw them out at room temperature before combining into the salad.

2 cups French-cut green beans, canned
2 cups whole kernel corn, canned
1 green pepper, chopped
1 onion, sliced into rings
1/2 cup vinegar
1/2 cup salad oil
1 cup sugar
Dash of pepper

Drain beans and corn, add green pepper and onion. Combine remaining ingredients; pour over vegetables. Toss lightly. Marinate in refrigerator for several hours before serving. Garnish with extra onion rings. Makes 10-12 servings (serving size 1/2 cup).
