Delicious! I made this for a birthday luncheon last month and it was a huge hit! I substituted black beans for the kidney beans. Am making it for another birthday lunch this weekend! Wonderful! Also, used the extra dressing for sandwich wraps. The dressing is very fresh and tasty. Will make it often!!
