Inspired by the sun-soaked flavours of Tuscany, this vibrant platter salad layers tender cannellini beans and sweet red and yellow peppers over a bed of soft baby greens. Juicy cherry tomatoes, creamy feta, and a scatter of golden toasted pine nuts add richness and crunch, while a bright red-wine-and-Dijon vinaigrette ties it all together. Fresh basil and a pinch of chili flakes finish it with warmth and aroma. Naturally vegetarian and gluten-free, it comes together in about 20 minutes, perfect for sharing.
