Vibrant Marinated White Bean Salad (The Perfect Tuscan Side Dish)

Prep Time20 minsTotal Time20 mins

Cannellini Bean Arugula Salad

Vinegrette
 1 tbsp white wine vinegar
 2 tbsp olive oil
 ½ tsp sugar
 1 dash salt
Salad
 ½ small shallot, thinly sliced into rings and separated
 14.50 oz can cannellini beans, drained and rinsed
 16 arugula leaves
 1 radish, thinly sliced
 Parmesan or toasted pine nuts for garnish
1

In a medium bowl, combine the vinegar, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Slowly whisk in the extra-virgin olive oil until the dressing emulsifies.

Add the drained white beans, minced shallots, radishes, and fresh parsley directly into the bowl with the vinaigrette. Toss gently to coat. Let the mixture sit at room temperature for 15 to 20 minutes so the beans absorb the tangy flavors.

2

Arrange a fresh bed of baby arugula on a large serving platter or divide it among individual plates.

Spoon the marinated white bean mixture—along with the extra vinaigrette from the bowl—directly over the top of the arugula. Garnish with shaved Parmesan or toasted pine nuts if desired, and serve immediately.
