Thanks to my sister-in-law for this great bean salad recipe. The celery and green pepper add some nice crunch and the dressing is just right.

Using frozen green beans is a great idea!

yum! i just bought some canned beans at the grocery store, and was wondering what to do with them (; the only thing i’d probably change is using frozen green beans; i feel like they’re so much fresher, and they’re just as easy to deal with compared to canned!
