I've been making something similar for years; garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, & capers for a vinegarette, northern beans or canelli, red & yellow peppers for crunch, color & pizzaz.

Made this for a picnic dinner and it was ok. I had the leftovers for lunch but added some Pinot Grigio vinegar and Papadew peppers. Now that made it really yummy!
