Three Bean and Hatch Chili Salad

Three Bean and Chili Salad

Three Bean Salad is good no matter how you fix it.  I really get a kick watching my husband (yes, my husband) throw in ideas when I start putting something together.  I could see his eyes light up when we discussed  three bean salad with fresh cooked Hatch Chili's.  I gotta give him credit.  Some days he is my biggest inspiration.  I can't wait for him to get home and try it.  I think I'll serve it with his favorite Chili Cheese Dogs for dinner.  You can find my recipe for those here also.
