(The veggies give the beans a bit more flavor, but they are optional if you don't have anything)Bring to boil then lower to simmer 20-30 minutes until the beans are tender.

Drain & discard the vegetables.In a bowl combine the beans, tomatoes, onion, cucumber.

Add in the herbs.

Combine the oil & vinegar then toss with the salad.Season with salt & pepper.

Let stand 10-15 minutes to let the flavors come together. Recheck your seasonings (taste it) and adjust.

Serve.
