Lemony Hearts of Palm and White Bean Salad

Step 1

Make the dressing.  You can either make the dressing right in the bowl you will be assembling your salad, or you can make it in a small bowl or jar.  Add all dressing ingredients and whisk well until completely combined.

Step 2

Start by opening the can of hearts of palm, draining out the liquid and giving them a rinse under cold water.  Pat dry with a clean kitchen towel and then dice into thin discs.  I left the smaller ones whole and cut he larger ones in half or fourths, lengthwise, before cutting cutting the discs.  It’s ok if some of the hearts of palm fall apart a little bit.

Step 3

Add the hearts of palm to a bowl, along with the white beans, cucumber, onion and parsley.  Pour dressing over salad and mix well until combined.  You don’t have to use all the dressing if you don’t want to.  This salad is a little dressing heavy, but I like that because it can easily be used as a dip for crackers or bread.
