White Bean And Olive Salad Recipes

Steps:

• In a large bowl, whisk together lemon juice, oil, and mustard; season with salt and pepper. Add beans, onion, and olives; toss to combine.

Steps:

• Drain, rinse and drain white beans. Place in medium heavy saucepan and add onion halves (with cloves), bay leaf, and enough water to cover by an inch. Bring to the boil, reduce to barely a simmer, cover and cook 20 minutes. Add salt and pepper, and a little more water if none is visible when you tilt the pan, and cook another 2030 minutes until beans are creamy inside but still intact. Drain and remove onions and bay leaf. Let cool.
• Place white beans in a large bowl with olive, peppers, cucumbers, scallions and tomatoes. Make vinaigrette by placing vinegar in a small bowl and slowly drizzling in olive oil while whisking to form an emulsion. Pour vinaigrette over beans and vegetables, add parsley, and stir well. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve at room temperature.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook as the label directs; drain and rinse under cold water. Transfer to a large bowl.
• Add the tuna, celery, white beans and olives to the bowl with the pasta.
• Make the dressing: Whisk the mayonnaise, sour cream, lemon juice, herbs, and salt and pepper to taste in a bowl. Pour over the pasta salad and toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper. Chill for up to 3 hours.

Steps:

• 1. To quick-soak the beans: Place the beans in a large pot with water to cover by 3 inches and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, 45 minutes. Remove from the heat, drain, and rinse.
• 2. To cook the beans: Place the beans in a large pot and add enough water to cover by 3 to 4 inches. Bring to a boil, lower heat, and simmer, uncovered, 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until beans are tender but still firm. Drain and rinse the beans thoroughly. Set aside to cool.
• 3. Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and cook and stir until slightly brown, about 5 minutes.
• 4. Toss the beans, onion, spinach, sun-dried tomatoes, mozzarella, and olives in a large bowl with the vinaigrette until just combined. Season with salt and pepper and serve immediately or refrigerate in an airtight container until ready to use or up to 1 day. If refrigerating, add the spinach just before serving.
