EASY MEDITERRANEAN BEAN SALAD



Easy Mediterranean Bean Salad image

Easy three bean salad recipe packed with Mediterranean flavors from fresh herbs, capers, and a zesty Dijon garlic vinaigrette. Instead of mushy canned green beans, use fresh steamed ones, or swap them out for another type of bean. I chose to use cannellini beans! After dressing the bean salad, allow it to chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving, so that the beans can absorb the zippy dressing.

Tips:

  • If you don't have any corn on the cob, you can use frozen or canned corn. Just be sure to drain the canned corn well before adding it to the salad.
  • Feel free to add other vegetables to the salad, such as chopped bell peppers, carrots, or celery.
  • For a heartier salad, you can add some cooked chicken or bacon.
