Directions

In a large bowl, mix together all the beans, artichoke hearts, sun-dried tomatoes and thyme leaves until well combined.

In a small bowl, whisk together all the dressing ingredients until well blended.

Pour the dressing over the salad, and gently stir until well coated.

Let the bean salad refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.

Divide the greens among the serving plates, place equal amount of bean salad on top of the greens.

Sprinkle the toasted almonds.

Serve and enjoy.

Note: you can always cook dried beans in a large pot of salted water. In this recipe, you can use other similar beans, and you can make it a 3 or 4 bean salad as well. Whatever beans you have on hand, throw them in, and the salad still tastes amazing.
