ITALIAN WHITE BEAN AND ARTICHOKE SALAD



Italian White Bean and Artichoke Salad image

I am sure this came from one of the cooking magazines, but no longer know which one ! I have made this several times for groups of from 4-14, and given as many copies to attending guests. Hints : this is rather labor-intensive, so slice and chop early in the day, keeping each ingredient in a separate baggy. You may use red an/or/green peppers, and choice of Asiago, sharp provolone, or feta cheese. The original recipe called for canned artichoke hearts, drained and quartered, but I have found that the marinated are already quartered, more tender, and less fibrous.

Time 30m

Yield 5

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 ½ pounds green beans, trimmed
1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved
1 (14 ounce) jar marinated artichoke hearts, drained and chopped
½ medium red onion, sliced
¼ cup black olives, pitted
1 (14 ounce) jar cannellini beans, drained and rinsed

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, flavorful ingredients will make a big difference in the taste of your salad. Look for crisp, tender cannellini beans, artichoke hearts, and vegetables.
  • Don't overcook the beans: Cannellini beans should be cooked until they are tender but still hold their shape. Overcooked beans will become mushy and ruin the texture of the salad.
  • Marinate the vegetables: Marinating the vegetables in a flavorful dressing before adding them to the salad will help them absorb more flavor. You can use a simple vinaigrette or a more complex marinade with herbs, spices, and citrus.
  • Assemble the salad just before serving: This will help prevent the salad from getting watery. If you need to make the salad ahead of time, store the dressing and vegetables separately and assemble the salad just before serving.

Conclusion:

This cannellini bean and artichoke salad is a delicious, healthy, and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. With its vibrant colors and flavors, this salad is sure to be a hit at your next potluck or gathering. So next time you're looking for a light and refreshing salad, give this one a try.
