Veggie Tales: Beans with Envy!

As a vegetarian, it's tough making a bean salad that's more than just a bean salad. But when you add one simple ingredient (that is not so simple)- you create a dish that is flavorful, powerful, and more importantly: Easy and Delightful! 
I present: The Artichoke
Italian Artichoke and White Bean Salad
What you'll need:
1 can artichokes (rinsed and halved)
1 can cannellini beans (rinsed)
1 red onion (minced)
1/4 cup freshly chopped parsley
1/4 cup freshly chopped basil
1 lemon (zest and juice)
1 garlic clove (minced)
2 tablespoons olive oil
salt and pepper to taste

What you'll do:
Mix all of the ingredients in a bowl and enjoy the goodness!
Happy Saturday! 
It's Veggie Tales, By Kris! Join me at Behold The Metatron everyday!

This bean salad looks fantastic! I usually don't care fore bean salad because of all the beans and vinegar. This is perfect with the addition of the artichokes and lemon juice!
