Use Your Choice of Vegetables

We used chopped cucumbers and cherry tomatoes for this salad, but feel free to use your favorite vegetables or whatever you have on hand, like bell peppers, radishes or celery. Try mixing it up with different seasonal vegetables. If you have leftover roasted vegetables, make sure they're cooled completely before adding them to the salad.

Types of White Beans

You can use any type of white bean for this salad, such as cannellini beans, navy beans or great northern beans. If you can find it, we recommend using low-sodium canned white beans to reduce your sodium intake.

Can I Double This Recipe?

Absolutely! You can easily double this recipe to make two servings, or you can meal prep it. If you plan on using this recipe for meal prep, the avocado can be diced and added the morning of or tossed with lemon juice to keep it from turning brown. The oil and vinegar can be stored in a separate container and tossed to combine with the salad before serving. Check out more tips on how to dice avocados and how to store cut avocados.

Nutrition information is calculated by a registered dietitian using an ingredient database but should be considered an estimate.

* Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
