Ingredients:

1 can northern white beans, drained and rinsed 1 can red kidney beans, drained and rinsed
1 can yellow corn, drained
2 stalks celery cut into preferred sized chunks. I did a medium dice
1/4 medium red onion diced
1 loose cup of spring greens, with radicchio, rinsed, dried and julienned
1/2 red pepper, diced
1 can quartered artichoke hearts, drained
1 small jalapeno, green part only, diced (I might use two!)
Mix all ingredients together. Add vinaigrette just before serving.
Tips: Add 2 cloves minced garlic if you like, for some pop! This is great with fresh fish, or over chicken, if you heat up.

5 T sunflower oil
1 T fresh thyme, leaves only salt and pepper to taste
