Glad Nick liked the bean salad. I believe that the following is about right (it should be half of the quantity we made for the invitation): * 2 cans of northern beans (Goya) * 1 red bell pepper * 1 orange bell pepper * 1 yellow bell pepper * 1 green bell pepper * 1 large tomato * 1 onion * Black olives (half a small box of Shiraz). * Salt (to taste), ground pepper mix (to taste), lime (one to one and a half- to taste) and oil (I used olive oil at Mom’s request 3 large spoons, I used the plastic spoon of the salad tongs), you can also add chopped garlic (to taste), Mom did not want the garlic for the invitation!
