Name: White Bean Caprese Salad
Total time: 20 min
Ingredients: 1 15-oz can Great Northern (or White Kidney) beans, drained and rinsed; 2 cups quartered cherry tomatoes; 2 1/2 oz fresh mozzarella (cut into 1-inch cubes); 1 garlic clove (finely minced); 1/4 tsp kosher salt; freshly ground black pepper; 10 fresh basil leaves (chopped); 2 tsp olive oil; 2 tsp balsamic glaze

Nothing says summer like a Caprese salad, and this one is made with white beans for added protein and fiber. It's EASY to make, and there's no cooking required which is a bonus during these hot summer temperatures we're having this week.

This is so delicious! I will be making this all summer. I shared it with my Mom and she loves it too! Thanks for another winner!

This is one of my favorite skinnytaste dishes. I think using fresh garlic is a must. It’s a great alternative to all the pasta dishes at cookouts.

I've made this as written and it is fantastic! Tonight I plan to make it and sub cottage cheese for the mozzarella which I do not have on hand.

This dish is SO good! The flavors pop! I will definitely make this again and will try it with some grilled chicken mixed in. 

Love this recipe. 

When I make it again, I will most likely further season and cook the canned beans before adding to this recipe, just so they get a little more flavor and softness.

Great, light, filling salad!  Just enough salt and sweetness to produce an excellent flavor.  I made this as a side to light dinner, but I would love to take this to a potluck or picnic.  So good, so easy to throw together, so healthy!  Loved it!
