This 5-bean salad recipe from Jeanette Simec of Ottawa, Illinois is great to take to picnics or potlucks. "Everyone loves the variety of beans in this simple salad. My husband, Chuck, just can't get enough of it," says Simec. The colorful classic is made with an oil and vinegar dressing, and of course, five different kinds of beans. —Taste of Home Test Kitchen
