Healthy Recipe, White Bean and Spinach Salad

With so few ingredients, this salad is surprisingly substantial thanks to the protein- and fiber-packed white beans. Tender spinach, zippy red onion and a bold Dijon dressing fill out this simple salad that works as a main dish or side.

Ingredients: 

• 3 cups cooked no-salt-added cannellini beans, from 2 (15-ounce cans) beans, drained and rinsed 
• 1 small red onion, thinly sliced 
• 4 cups tightly packed fresh spinach leaves, tough stems removed 
• 2 1/2 tablespoon Dijon mustard 
• 2 1/2 tablespoon cider vinegar 
• 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
