Salad:

• 1 19-oz(540mL) can cannellini or white kidney beans, rinsed and drained
• 1 cup diced English cucumber
• 1/2 cup chopped green onions
• 1 cup chopped celery

Lemon Mint Vinaigrette:

• 3 tbsp. lemon or lime juice (I like this salad better with lime, for some reason!)

• 1/2  tsp. minced garlic
• 1/2 cup olive oil
