Drain beans well and add with other ingredients to bowl and mix up . Let mellow.

Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
This tastes best if allowed to rest/mellow several hours, even the next day.
If you are using ham, buy a slab about 1/4 in thick, cut up the amount needed for the salad and use the rest for a different recipe (like omlette).
If you are increasing this recipe, a 2nd can of different beans (black,red) is great --adds color and vitamins--but if you only are using one kind, white (or light) beans tastes best.
