Ingredients
Salad Ingredients
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes
- 15 ounce can cannellini beans, drained and rinsed
- 1 tablespoon fresh chopped basil
- 1 tablespoon fresh chopped oregano
- salt and pepper to taste
Basil Vinaigrette
- 1/4 cup fresh chopped basil
- 1/4 cup champagne vinegar
- 1 1/2 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 1/2 tablespoon honey
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
Salad
- In a medium sized bowl add the tomatoes, beans, basil, oregano, salt and pepper. Toss everything gently together.
Cup of Yum
Basil Vinaigrette
- Place all of the ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth.
- Pour the dressing over the salad (I only used half the dressing and saved the rest for other uses) and gently fold everything together. Serve immediately or refrigerate until you are ready to serve. I found that the flavor of the basil intensifies and the flavors come together more as it rests in the fridge. This salad is also just as good the next day.
Notes
- This salad makes a nice light lunch or side dish. To make it a more complete meal try adding pasta to it.
