Marinated White Beans

Ingredients

• 2 -15 oz cans butter beans
• 1/4 bunch fresh parsley
• 2 Tbsp olive oil
• 1 Tbsp lemon juice
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• 1/2 tsp dried oregano
• Salt and pepper to taste

Directions

1. Pour the beans into a colander, rinse with cool water, and leave them there briefly so any extra liquid can drip off.
2. Wash the parsley and shake off the water. Strip the leaves away from the stems, then give the leaves a coarse chop.
3. Add the beans to a bowl with the parsley, olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, a pinch of salt, and freshly cracked pepper. Toss gently until the beans are evenly coated, then taste and add more salt if they need it. Chill until you’re ready to eat.
