Ingredients
- ▢1 11 oz can sweet white corn or shoepeg corn, drained
- ▢1 15 oz can Le Sueur small green peas drained
- ▢1 14.5 oz can French style green beans drained
- ▢1 tablespoon pimentos
- ▢1/2 large white onion chopped small
- ▢1 red bell pepper chopped small
- ▢3/4 cup celery chopped small

- ▢1/2 cup white wine vinegar
- ▢1/2 cup sugar 107 g
- ▢1/2 teaspoon fine ground salt
- ▢1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
Instructions
- Create Dressing: In a small saucepan add oil, vinegar, sugar, salt, and pepper. Heat over medium heat, whisking to dissolve the sugar. Let it come to a low boil and once all of the sugar is dissolved, remove it from the heat and set aside to cool.
- Prep Veggies: Meanwhile, prep the veggies and then add them all to a large bowl.
- Create Salad: Pour the cooled dressing over the veggies and mix well.
- Store in fridge: Store in the fridge overnight or for at least 5-6 hours to cool and to allow the veggies to marinate in the dressing.
- Enjoy!
Notes
Storage
Store this salad in the fridge for up to 5 days.
Substitutions
Corn: Sweet white corn or shoepeg corn are preferred for this recipe.
Onion: Yellow onion would also be great, but red doesn’t quite work the same for this one.
Red Bell Pepper: Another sweet bell pepper like orange or yellow would also work well.
Peas: The small young peas are the best for this one and Bubbles specifically names the Le Sueur brand!
Oil: The original recipe calls for vegetable oil, although as we try to use less of this in our recipes, we used a light olive oil instead, which is still delicious!
Vinegar: If you don’t have white wine vinegar, apple cider is a great substitute.
Make Ahead
That’s the intention of this salad! It’s best once it has cooled and the veggies have marinated in the dressing.
Chopped Veggies
Be sure to chop the onion, bell pepper, and celery all small and about the same size.
