This is a twist on the usual spinach salad. It's fast and easy to prepare. You can make it more substansial by adding 3-4 cups of cooked pasta (like rotelle). I prefer to use red peppers in place of the green. Recipe comes from Betty Crocker's Easy Meatless Dishes . Ingredients:
10 ounces fresh spinach, washed |
15 ounces cannellini beans, rinsed and drained |
2/3 cup italian dressing |
1 1/2 cups bell peppers, coarsely chopped (1 large) |
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
1/3 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded (2 oz) |
Directions:
1. .Remove tough stems from spinach and tear into bite-sized pieces. Place in a large bowl. Add beans and set aside.
2. Heat dressing and bell pepper to boiling, then reduce heat. Cook uncovered, for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in garlic powder and pepper.
3. Pour heated mixture over spinach and beans. Toss, then sprinkle with mozarella. Serve warm.
