Description

A robust and flavorful Dense Bean Salad with Sun-dried Tomatoes featuring cannellini beans, chickpeas, sun-dried tomatoes, red onion, and fresh parsley with a lemon-herb vinaigrette. Perfect as a side or light lunch.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (15-ounce) can cannellini beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 (15-ounce) can chickpeas, rinsed and drained
  • 1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes packed in oil, drained and roughly chopped
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped red onion
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. 1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the rinsed and drained cannellini beans and chickpeas. Gently mash about half of the beans with the back of a fork or a potato masher.
  2. 2. Add the chopped sun-dried tomatoes, finely chopped red onion, and fresh parsley to the bowl with the beans. Stir everything together.
  3. 3. In a small bowl or a jar with a tight-fitting lid, whisk together the extra-virgin olive oil, fresh lemon juice, minced garlic, and dried oregano. Season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
  4. 4. Pour the dressing over the bean and vegetable mixture. Toss gently to coat everything thoroughly.
  5. 5. Let the salad sit for at least 15-30 minutes at room temperature, or preferably chill it in the refrigerator for at least an hour, before serving.

Notes

Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. This salad is best served chilled or at room temperature and does not require reheating. Flavors improve with time.
