This Mediterranean white bean salad recipe is healthy, simple to make, and packed with veggies and a light vinaigrette dressing.

Since there's no lettuce in here, the salad doesn't go soggy, so it keeps for a few days. It's good for making ahead/meal prep/work lunches. It works as a main course when you feel like something fresh or as a side dish. The beans and cheese provide a bit of protein, so this is a filling vegetarian option.

Recipe notes & tips:

This recipe is very forgiving. Don't like tomatoes? Skip them. Have other veggies in the fridge? Throw them in. Want to use a different kind of beans? Go ahead.
I used crumbled feta, but you can use whatever you've got/you can find at the store. Ones that are cut into small cubes and packed in oil and herbs are good too.
You could use lemon juice instead of red wine vinegar (I'd start with half the amount then add more as needed).
