Ingredients:

Quantity	Ingredient
2 cans	Kidney beans
1	Red onion
1/4 cup	White vinegar
1/4 cup	Chopped chives
1/2 tsp	Dried oregano
1/2 tsp	Salt
To taste	Ground black pepper

Instructions:

Drain the kidney beans well: Start by thoroughly draining the kidney beans to remove excess liquid and prepare them for the relish.
Chop the red onion: Finely chop the red onion and add it to the kidney beans in a mixing bowl. The onion adds a vibrant flavor and texture to the relish.
Combine remaining ingredients: In a separate bowl, combine the white vinegar, chopped chives, dried oregano, salt, and ground black pepper. Mix the ingredients well to ensure even distribution of flavors.
Pour over beans and onion: Pour the vinegar mixture over the kidney beans and chopped onion. Gently toss the ingredients together, ensuring that the beans and onion are evenly coated with the flavorful mixture.
Season to taste: Add salt and ground black pepper to taste, adjusting the seasoning according to your preferences. Remember, you can always add more seasoning later, so start with a conservative amount.
Refrigerate before serving: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate the relish for at least two hours before serving. Chilling allows the flavors to meld together and enhances the overall taste of the dish.
Serve and enjoy: Once chilled, serve the Kidney Bean Relish with your favorite crusty breads, crackers, or chips. It’s a versatile dish that’s sure to please any crowd!
