[recipe] Beans 'N' Greens ~ vegan

[Guest guest]

Here is a nice salad to take to a gathering of friends

or to serve to a large group. It is a nice blend of mild

dressing, crisp-tender beans and lettuce greens.

i like to play around with the lettuce combinations,

and sometimes i add garlic with a dash of cayenne.

Use your imagination.
