I'm allergic to nuts, so I used sunflower seeds instead of pine nuts.

I'm not a big fan of tahini, so I omitted it from the dressing. The dish was still delicious.

I'm not usually a fan of white beans, but they were surprisingly good in this dish. The spinach and feta cheese really helped to balance out the flavor.

This dish was easy to make and very tasty. I used canned white beans, which made it even quicker to prepare. The lemon-tahini dressing was the perfect finishing touch.
