Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

In a large bowl, gently combine the drained and rinsed kidney beans, diced white onion, diced hard-boiled eggs, diced sweet pickles, mayonnaise, and diced celery. (5 minutes)

02

Step
3 mins

Mix all the ingredients together until well combined, ensuring the mayonnaise evenly coats the other ingredients. (3 minutes)

03

Step
2 mins

Season the salad with salt and freshly ground black pepper to your liking. (2 minutes)

04

Step
8 hrs

Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap or transfer the salad to an airtight container. Refrigerate for at least 8 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld together beautifully. (8 hours)

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a tablespoon of Dijon mustard to the mayonnaise before mixing. This will add a pleasant tang that complements the sweetness of the pickles.
If you prefer a lighter salad, you can substitute half of the mayonnaise with plain Greek yogurt.
Feel free to experiment with different types of pickles, such as dill pickles or bread and butter pickles, to customize the flavor profile to your preference.
