This came from the BBC's tv program Economy Gastronomy. They served this as part of a whole meal as a side dish with roast lamb. We made the whole meal, too, but the salad was the best part! This could be a main dish for a veggie meal.

CHERRY TOMATO AND WHITE BEAN SALAD
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.

Steps:
- In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, vinegar, mustard, salt and pepper. Stir in the red onion and garlic and set the dressing aside to marinate for 15 to 30 minutes at room temperature.
- Place the tomatoes, white beans and parsley in a large bowl. Pour the dressing over the salad, toss well, then gently fold in the Parmesan. Serve at room temperature using a slotted spoon.
Tips:
- Choose the right vegetables: For best results, select vegetables that are firm and in season. This will ensure that they grill properly and retain their flavor.
- Prepare your vegetables properly: Before grilling, make sure to clean and trim your vegetables. You may also want to marinate them in a mixture of olive oil, herbs, and spices to enhance their flavor.
- Grill your vegetables over medium heat: This will help them to cook evenly without burning. Be sure to turn the vegetables frequently so that they cook on all sides.
- Don't overcook your vegetables: Vegetables should be cooked until they are tender but still have a slight crunch. Overcooked vegetables will be mushy and bland.
- Serve your grilled vegetable salad immediately: This dish is best enjoyed when it is fresh and warm. You can also store the salad in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
