  This has exactly the right name, it is very easy, particularly if you are feeding a crowd. If I double it up I usually use 2 tins of cannellini beans and 2 of butter beans. It improves overnight as well.

  This was quite tasty but it didn't go down as well with my guests as the lemony potato salad from this site. I replaced the parsley with coriander because I'm not a big fan of it, and I think it suited the dish

  Very nice fresh salad, but the BBQ I made it for got called off because of the weather, so I was I was left with plenty of the stuff to get through. After several meals accompanied by a heap of bean salad, I decided to have a bit of a change, so cooked the remaining salad in a pan, then added vegetable stock and herbs before liquidising for a really tasty soup!
