Mediterranean Bean Salad


After accepting a last minute invitation to a July 4th BBQ, and in need of grocery shopping; I scouted though my pantry and found ingredients for what turned out to be one of the favorite side dishes of the day! When my son tasted it he said, "It is very Mediterranean." Hence the name of my creation.

1 can of chick peas
1 can of Northerner beans
1 clove garlic minced
1/2 medium green pepper, diced
1/2 medium Vadalia onion, diced
3 full sprigs of fresh parsley, minced
4 tbl. red wine vinegar
4 tbl. balsamic vinegar
2 tbl. olive oil

Mix all ingredients; allow to chill and marinate for several hours before serving.
