For the Salad
- 2 large handfuls arugula
- 1 cup white beans
- 1 roasted bell pepper, diced (store-bought or homemade)
- 2 tablespoons pine nuts or slivered almonds
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1/2 avocado, sliced (optional)
- sliced parmesan cheese, to taste (optional) For the Dressing
- extra-virgin olive oil, to taste
- lemon juice, to taste (optional)
Instructions
- Step 1: Heat a dry frying pan over medium high and add the pine nuts or almonds. Toast the nuts in the pan for 2 to 3 minutes, or until lightly golden and fragrant. Shake the pan often to avoid burning. Once toasted, transfer the nuts to a small bowl.
- Step 2: Now heat the 1 tablespoon of olive oil in the same frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and cook for 15 seconds. Then add the diced roasted bell pepper and beans. Cook, stirring often, for 2 minutes. Set aside.
- Step 3: Toss the arugula with a little olive oil and salt. Divide the greens onto plates. Top with the warm bean mix, toasted nuts, optional avocado, and a few parmesan shavings on top.
- Serve: Season with a drizzle of olive oil and a little optional lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper. Enjoy.
