Cannellini Bean Salad

  I can call this recipe Cannellini Bean Anti Pasto as well, but salad is just as descriptive. They both use the same ingredients. It is easy to prepare and makes a great side dish or appetizer for any Italian meal... which is healthy too! Remember to sign up for my weekly newsletter to receive weekly free recipes!
