Julia's Collections

When my mother passed away 20 years ago, my sisters and I had the not-so-fun job of going through her treasures. No one spoke for her recipe collections, so I grabbed them. You see, my mom was a fantastic cook. It seemed a shame to me to have those recipes go unclaimed! Well, here we are, 20 years later; and those recipes have rested in their special place on my closet shelf waiting to be tried . . . .

Bean Salad the First

There are three bean salad recipes in the collection. I chose this recipe to give away because I don't like green olives. I'm sure someone at the FACC will like them, or they'll pick them out like I would have done. Nothing else remarkable about this salad, but I think it looks pretty.



1 can green beans
1 can wax beans
1 can kidney beans, drained & washed
1 whole onion cut in rings
1 can pimento
1 can green olives
Dressing:
1/3 cup sugar
1/3 cup oil
1 tsp. pepper
1 tbsp. vinegar
Salt
Marinate beans for hours.
