Ingredients

  • 3 large red bell peppers
  • 1/4 cup red wine vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons oil
  • 1 cup finely chopped jicama
  • 1 (15.5-oz.) can great northern beans, drained, rinsed
  • 1 (15-oz.) can Progresso™ black beans, drained, rinsed
  • 1 (7-oz.) can whole kernel sweet corn, drained
  • 1 can (4 oz) Old El Paso™ Chopped Green Chiles
  • Lettuce leaves

Steps

  • 1
    In Dutch oven or large saucepan, bring 6 cups water to a boil. Meanwhile, cut bell peppers in half lengthwise; remove seeds. Place peppers in boiling water for 2 minutes. Drain; rinse with cold water until cool.
  • 2
    In large bowl, combine vinegar, chili powder, salt and oil; blend well. Add all remaining ingredients except lettuce and bell peppers; blend well.
  • 3
    Spoon bean mixture into pepper halves. Serve immediately on lettuce-lined plates, or refrigerate until serving time.

  • This recipe is a variation of the summertime favorite, three bean salad. Our salad combines two popular types of canned beans, black beans and Great Northern beans.
  • Red wine vinegar has a stronger flavor than white vinegar. The red vinegar gives foods a dark rosy color and a slight red wine flavor.
  • Top filled peppers with shredded colby-Jack or Cheddar cheese and a spoonful of salsa.
