Are you looking for a super-easy side dish that gives you plenty of time to focus on the rest of your meal? Look no further. Serve these beans at your next barbecue and give yourself lots of time to make the ribs or grilled chicken that would be a perfect match. Or make it easy on yourself and toss a few hotdogs on the grill instead. All that's needed then is a simple vinegary coleslaw. You can shred your own cabbage and carrots, or save some time and pick up one of the pre-made coleslaw mixes in the produce section.
