FAQ

Can I use dried beans instead of canned ones?

Yes, just cook dried white beans until tender and let them cool before adding them to the salad. Canned or pre-cooked beans are simply the faster option for a quick weekday meal.

What can I use instead of sushi seasoning?

White balsamic vinegar works as a direct substitute, as already suggested in the recipe. It gives the same light, tangy note without overpowering the fresh vegetables.

How can I make the salad more filling?

Add feta cheese or olives, both of which the recipe recommends as tasty extras. Either one pairs nicely with the lemony dressing and turns the salad into a more substantial meal.
