I love creating salads with veggies and beans and grains I have on hand. It is fun to experiment. I made this salad this week and it knocked my socks off. It is hearty and filling and great leftover. The roasted broccolini and asparagus pair so well with the creamy white beans, herbs and lemon dressing! You could sub any roasted veggies!~
