This easy no-cook side holds up well and is a great make-ahead option for a picnic or backyard barbecue. It’s chock full of fresh veggies (tomatoes, cucumber, bell pepper) which offer textural contrast to the creamy beans, but the real star here might well be the dill pickles that are chopped and added for crunchy, tart bursts.
