Description

Made with fewer than 10 ingredients in just 10 minutes of active time, this Tuscan Bean Salad is the epitome of simplicity. Perfect for serving as a dip with pita wedges or piling over a bed of your favorite greens, this delectable recipe for white bean salad was inspired by my favorite Italian eatery in NYC.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 - 15 oz can of Great Northern Beans, drained and rinsed
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • Juice from 1/2 lemon
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • Red pepper flakes to taste

Instructions

  1. Add all of the ingredients to a mixing bowl, and stir until well incorporated.
  2. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes to an hour to allow the flavors to marinate.
  3. Serve at room temperature as a dip with bread, warm pita, and/or veggies. I even topped my salad with this recipe the other day and it was delicious!
