Cannellini Bean Salad

As you saw here, I love me some cold salads in the summer for lunch. Here's another recipe that can be thrown together quickly for weekly work lunches, as a dinner side-dish or even to bring to summer backyard barbeques.

Cannellini Bean Salad

Ingredients:
3 15oz cans of Cannellini (white) beans, rinsed
1/2 cup cilantro, chopped
1 small red onion (1/2 medium onion), diced
1 cup of grape tomatoes, quartered
3 limes, juiced
1/4 cup olive oil
1 clove of garlic, minced
Salt & pepper, to taste



In a large bowl with a lid, combines beans, tomatoes, onion and cilantro. In small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lime juice, garlic and salt & pepper. Dress bean salad with the olive oil mixture and toss to coat. Chill covered in the refrigerator for 30 minutes before serving.

Boom, cannellini bean salad- easy peasy and pretty tasty.


Love, 
Michele

  2. This looks really good! I'll have to try it. Can you please post your recipe for the white bean, lemon and parsley salad? I tried making it recently and it was missing something. Also, your recipe for chili-rubbed salmon steaks? Thanks! love your blog!

  3. Hi Lisa!
    Here's the salmon rub that I use: http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/healthy-appetite-with-ellie-krieger-/salmon-with-sweet-spicy-rub-recipe/index.html

    As for the lemon and parsley version I make: you can use this recipe, minus the peppers and substitute the cilantro for parsley and the lime for lemon. That should do it!
