Ingredients:

• DRESSING
• 3 Tbsp olive oil
• Juice of 1 lemon (about 3 tbsp.)
• 1 1/2 Tbsp red wine vinegar
• 1 tsp minced fresh garlic
• 1 tsp honey
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• SALAD
• 2 15.5 oz cans cannellini beans
• 1 cup halved grape tomatoes
• 1/4 cup diced red onion
• 1/2 cup diced celery
• 1/2 cup diced red bell pepper

Method

Whisk dressing ingredients together and toss with salad ingredients in a large bowl. Chill at least 1 hour before serving. Serve with pita chips, if desired.

Notes: I had a similar salad to this at a Turkish restaurant in my neighborhood. They offer it as one of their meze choices. It's very good with pita chips.

Number of servings: 4-6
