This is a very easy bean salad you can make the night before and take to work, or serve as a side dish.

Ingredients:
1 can white beans, like cannelini
1 tbsp red pepper, chopped fine
1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped fine
1/4 cup tomato, diced
1 tbsp red onion, chopped fine
1 tsp extra-virgin olive oil
1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
1 tsp herb and spice blend

Instructions:
Drain the canned beans and rinse well in a strainer. Make sure you've drained all the rinse water. Combine the remaining ingredients in a bowl, whisking the oil and vinegar together first. Add the beans. Experiment with different types of canned beans and different chopped vegetables to add.

    Looks delicious!

    What kind of "herb and spice blend" do you use?

    Thanks!

    I take basil, sage, thyme, chili powder and whatever else I have on hand.
