Simple White Bean Salad With Lemon Recipe


This dish requires no cooking at all, which is really a great thing for you once summer temperatures really start to rise this July.  This salad has a variety of textures and flavors that taste really refreshing.  Instead of a side dish add this bean mixture over a mixed bed of salad greens and you got yourself a light lunch!

2 cans of cannellini beans, rinsed
1 tomato chopped
2 scallions chopped
2 garlic cloves minced
4 tablespoons chopped parsley
2 tablespoons of lemon juice
3 tablespoons of extra-virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon of honey
Salt and Pepper To Taste

1.  Combine the cannelloni beans, tomato and scallions together. 

2.  To make the dressing, add the remaining ingredients together in a small bowl and stir until the honey is incorporated.

3.  Pour this over the beans, chopped tomatoes and scallions, so that the dressing is fully incorporated into the salad. Let this rest for at least 10-15 minutes so that the flavors can fully develop then serve.
