Tomato Salad with White Beans and Roasted Peppers

Tomato Salad with White Beans and Roasted Peppers

I think I’ve created my favorite salad in the world. That sounds a bit dramatic, but I’m not even exaggerating. The combination of flavors and textures in this white bean salad is just wow.

Here’s what I love about this recipe:

1. Oven-roasted peppers (probably my favorite item)

2. Apple cider dressing with nutritional yeast, capers and paprika (one of my favourites to date…)

3. A LOT of dill!

4. The salty side of feta (dairy-free)

5. Crouton crumbs (a must in this salad)

 

I don’t know what you’re waiting for to try it out! 😉
