Raise your hand up if you're a fan of white beans! They are a great source of fibre, protein and make a delicious and super healthy vegan white bean salad.
Who else is in need of an easy and light Mediterranean inspired meal?? Today I am going for this Greek white bean salad with avocado.
So fresh and packed with flavour. It takes about 10 minutes to prepare and I am sure you have all the ingredients in your cupboard & fridge already.
It's yummy, it's beans, it's veggies, it's protein, it's iron, it's fiber, it's filling, it's healthy, it's easy to make, it's meatless, it's dairy-free...
Basically, a few good-for-you veggies and parsley tossed with a good olive oil and lemon juice. Does it get any better?

How do you make cannellini bean salad?
I'm almost embarrassed to call this easy bean salad a 'recipe' because it's so simple!
You just throw all the ingredients in a bowl, mix, and enjoy. It couldn't be easier.
How to serve your white bean salad with avocado
I love having this salad on hand to use as a protein topper for other salads, vegan bowls, as a healthy side dish, or of course, as a meal on its own.
It's also a great one to take to BBQ's or shared meals, as everyone loves it!
