creative bean salad

Get creative... because I'm only providing the ingredients... you have fun distributing them into your dish! This is a delicious cold salad that will last in the refrigerator for up to about three days.  It's a perfect snack or protein blast!

Beans (I use about three different varieties, for fun, and color)
Garlic
Finely chopped red onion if you'd like
Jalapenos
Celery
Red pepper
Chili powder
Cumin
Splash of oil (I use Sunflower or Olive)
Splash of vinegar
Shake or two, or three of Italian Seasoning
Add tomato if you'd like

Toss it and enjoy.  Have fun!
