Summer Bean Pineapple Salsa

Rinse the following in a colander:
- 2 can of Black Beans
- 1 can of garbanzo beans
- 1 can of white (great northern) beans
- 1 can of kidney beans
- 1 can of pineapple tidbits

Toss bean/pineapple mixture in a large bowl.

Add:
- 2 cups of frozen yellow corn (thawed)
- 1 Yellow Bell Pepper, chopped
- ½ red onion, chopped
- 1 small hand full / bunch of fresh cilantro, finely chopped
- 1 small fresh jalapeno, diced
- 2 TBS of minced garlic (about 3-4 cloves pressed)
- 1 large bottle of Italian Dressing

Mix well, cover, and chill in fridge for at least one hour (or overnight.) Drain excess dressing before serving cold. Goes well with tortilla chips or pita. It is also great as a summer salad served over spinach with feta cheese.
