Zesty Lemon Cannellini Bean Salad

I don’t think I ever considered buying cannellini beans prior to seeing this delicious salad idea on my friend’s IG story. I looked them up and to my surprise they are full of protein, great source of fiber, magnesium, and iron. Ah-mazing and thank you, friend!

It’s really simple, refreshing and doesn’t require a stove or too much of your time.
