In a medium bowl, combine beans, onions, parsley, bell peppers, lemon juice, salt and black pepper. Cover and let stand 1 hour or longer, tossing several times to blend flavors. (It doesn't say to keep this in the refrigerator, but I did). 2. Line 4 plates with lettuce. Spoon one-fourth of the salad onto each plate. Garnish with lemon slices.
