Not Your Grandma's Three Bean Salad image

This isn't even remotely like the usual sweet and sour salad... this one has feta cheese, tomatoes and yes, three types of beans, in a light lemon juice vinaigrette. It's from one of those "bargain bin cookbooks" at a big chain bookstore and it makes a great vegetarian main-dish type salad.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover beans. I also like to add a can of corn for extra sweetness.
