WHITE BEAN CAPRESE SALAD



White Bean Caprese Salad image

Beloved pantry white beans add substance to this take on caprese salad, which comes together in no time. It's a perfect side for grilled chicken or fish, and can be easily doubled to work as a main course when it's too hot to turn on the oven. If you're so inclined, a handful of spicy arugula, thinly sliced roasted red peppers or ribbons of prosciutto - or all three - would also be nice additions. This dish is easily transportable and tastier when eaten while sitting in a lawn chair.

CHERRY TOMATO AND WHITE BEAN SALAD



Cherry Tomato and White Bean Salad image

This simple salad makes a bright, tangy companion to grilled meat or fish. Marinating the red onions and garlic in the vinaigrette for 15 minutes not only diffuses their flavor but also softens their bite. This salad travels well and would be an excellent choice for a potluck or picnic. It's also supremely versatile, and can be dressed up with any soft herb like basil, tarragon or mint, and chile, in almost any form.
