I love quick and easy recipes. It is they who help out the busy hostess, since they require a minimum of time and effort. My family liked the Riga salad "Trio", undeservedly forgotten, so that we cook it instead of the second course. It has an unusual, but very pleasant taste, although, it would seem, the most ordinary products are taken for it. Sometimes I add white beans instead of red beans. It also turns out very tasty.

Riga salad "Trio" is a simple but very tasty recipe. You should take it into service and add it to your culinary notebook. The most affordable products are required for him, so a salad can be prepared on weekdays for lunch or dinner.
