White Bean, Sweetcorn & Carrot Salad with Tomato Herb Dressing

Salad

• 1 tin white beans, eg haricot, drained and rinsed (or try pale green flageolet beans)
• 2 small tins or 1 large tin of sweetcorn
• 2 large carrots, grated
• 1 small red onion, chopped finely, or bunch spring onions, chopped
• Optional: wholemeal bread or rolls (or use an alternative if you want a wheat/gluten free version)

Tomato Herb Dressing: makes about 240ml/1 cup. Will keep in a screw-top jar in fridge for about a week.

• 6 sun-dried tomatoes. If they are completely dry, soak in hot water first. The moist type or the oily ones in jars don’t need soaking

• 1 garlic clove, crushed
• 4 tbsp water
• 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar

Optional

• Toasted seeds drizzled with soya sauce – home-made or toasted
