YOU WILL NEED
- BEAN SALAD
- 1 (15-ounce) can white beans, drained and rinsed or use 1 1/2 cups cooked beans
- 1/4 cup parlsey leaves, chopped
- 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
- 6 heaping cups arugula
- 8 thin slices prosciutto or other dry cured ham, torn into smaller pieces
- Handful of croutons, optional, see notes
- LEMON DRESSING
- 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
- Juice from 1 large lemon (about 1/4 cup)
- 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
- 1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon honey, optional
DIRECTIONS
- Make the dressing. Whisk the mustard, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, pepper, and honey in the bottom of a large bowl until creamy.
- Add the beans, parsley, and parmesan to the bowl with dressing. Gently toss until well coated. If making ahead, cover and refrigerate up to 3 days.
- Add arugula and gently toss until dressed. Divide the salad between four salad plates, and then tuck the prosciutto and croutons into the salad. Serve.
- ADAM AND JOANNE'S TIPS
- Make ahead tip: Follow the recipe through adding the beans, cheese, and parsley. Cover, and then store in the fridge up to 3 days (maybe a day more), but keep in mind that the olive oil might thicken. If this happens, take the salad out of the fridge 30 minutes to an hour before serving so that the oil returns to a liquid state.
- Croutons: Some stores sell fresh croutons made in store, which are usually much better than those sold in boxes near the salad dressings. You can also make them yourself. Here’s a salad recipe we shared a while back with homemade croutons so you can see how to make them.
