B’s Mediterranean White Bean Salad
We are investigating and contemplating the Mediterranean diet. Maybe we’re procrastinating too, hahahaha, but anyway. The healthiness of it, especially as we age, just sounds so good for our bodies. B came up with this recipe combining a few others he’d read and as weird as T is about, well, everything – lol – she loved this and went back for seconds! And it’s so easy to make, the best kind of recipes.

Hey T! Just yesterday the doctor strongly suggested I needed a Mediterranean diet for my ^ cholesterol, and I get this! Looove cannellonis and looking forward to more recipes.
I also appreciate your inspired writings for the peace and the “kick in the butt” they give me!
Hey Bonnie! B’s heart doctor has been recommending he do the Mediterranean diet for years and we’ve talked about it almost as long, lol, just got to do it! I hope to share a lot more of those types of things… we’re trying! But cutting out the bad stuff, as you know, is so hard. And THANK YOU for your sweet words, I’m kicking my own butt at the same time, lol, so glad to know someone is in it with me!
Good mrng Tracy. Thanks for the recipe, will be trying. I am a whole food plant based girl who was not a great fan of beans but now use them in everything. Our taste buds change with what we feed them consistently. Feed them well and they will learn to appreciate it????
Hey Maggie, I’m so sorry I just saw this! I don’t know if it’s my age or expanding waistline from hormones and eating too many cookies, lol, but whole food plant based is starting to sound better and better! If you have any tips or recipes, don’t hesitate to send them to me by email!
