A delicious summer salad with great flavors. Make it quick by buying a can of navy beans instead of dried. You'll save lots of time (skip the first two steps entirely). It'd be even better with hunks of mozzarella instead of the cheap shredded kind, I'm sure. Tuscan White Bean Salad Makes 6-8 servings. Recipe from Epicurious. Ingredients 1 1/2 cups dried navy beans, rinsed and picked over 1/4 cup olive oil 1 yellow onion, finely chopped 4 cups firmly packed spinach, washed, drained, and stems removed 1/2 cup chopped sun-dried tomatoes 1/2 pound fresh mozzarella cheese, cut into 1/2-inch cubes 1/2 cup pitted black olives, such as kalamata or niçoise Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste Dressing: 1/4 cup red wine vinegar 3 garlic cloves, minced 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard 2 tablespoons chopped fresh oregano or 2 teaspoons dried oregano 3/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste Directions To quick-soak the beans: Place the beans in a large pot
