Tomato, basil, and white bean salad

Tomato, basil, and white bean salad

This Martha Stewart recipe is a great summer side.

Serves 4

2 cans cannellini beans, drained and rinsed

½ pound small roma tomatoes, cut into 1” pieces

½ cup fresh basil leaves, torn into ½ inch pieces

1 teaspoon coarse salt

fresh ground pepper

¼ olive oil

2 small garlic cloves, minced

Combine beans, tomatoes, basil, and salt in a bowl. Season with pepper. Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add garlic, cook, stirring until fragrant but not browned, about 1 ½ minute. Pour over beans and gently toss. Let stand 30 minutes before serving to allow flavors to meld. Can be covered and kept at room temperature for 4 hours.
