The reason why I love this recipe is that it combines two dishes that are delicious. First a pasta salad and then homemade three bean salad. This is a simple and healthy side that you will enjoy!
Cook pasta according to directions on the box. Drain and set aside. Blanch the green beans for a few minutes and place in an ice bath. In a large bowl, combine the green beans, celery, pinto beans, kidney beans, onion and pasta. To make the vinaigrette in a separate bowl, combine the vinegar, lemon and lemon zest, mustard, honey, olive oil, chives and salt and pepper. Whisk until incorporated and pour over the salad. Toss and chill until you are ready to serve. This is a good side dish for 6 people!
