Here's a great idea to serve as a side at your barbecues: Veggie and Marinated Bean Salad Board. This salad board is delicious and very easy to prepare with our favorite trio of GOYA® Beans: Dark Kidney, Black and Chick Peas which are marinated with GOYA® Extra Virgin Olive Oil, cilantro, garlic, balsamic vinegar, lime, and a touch of Adobo. To prepare it, simply place lettuce on the board with bowls of the bean mixture, queso fresco, pepitas, corn and the two flavorful dressing options: a light and a creamy version. Finish with a decorative arrangement of fresh veggies.
