Angel Hair Nests with Olive Eggs

Angel Hair Nests with Olive "Eggs"

Perfect for spring, this easy and delicious recipe makes a great appetizer, side dish, or entree and will add a bit of whimsy to your spring table. And all in just about 15 minutes total time!





Tuna, Tomato, and Cannellini Bean Salad

No-cook main dish salads are a staple in my household during the summer. Our kitchen is always the hottest room in the house, and using the oven or stove increases the temperature substantially. Which makes recipes like this one a blessing. It is quick, easy, and inexpensive to throw together. It is wonderful for casual entertaining served with some fresh crusty bread and sliced fruit.

3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons olive oil
15 ounces drained and rinsed cannellini beans
7 ounce can drained and flaked tuna
3/4 cup halved grape or cherry tomatoes
1 bunch minced scallions
1/2 cup minced basil
4 minced garlic cloves
8 cups washed and torn salad greens

Mix together the vinegars and oil in a small bowl. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Add the beans, tuna, tomatoes, scallions, basil, and garlic and mix well. Add the salad greens and toss well before serving.

Makes 4 servings.

Preparation Time: 10 minutes
