20 ounces (two 16-ounce cans) canned red kidney beans, rinsed and drained 2 hard-boiled eggs, chopped
1 cup celery, chopped
1/2 cup Kraft fat-free Ranch dressing
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
In a large bowl, combine kidney beans, chopped eggs, and celery. Add Ranch dressing and black pepper. Mix well to combine. Cover and refrigerate.
