Simple Summer Bean Salad

INGREDIENTS


1 15-ounce can white beans or chickpeas
1-2 tomatoes, chopped
half a cucumber, chopped
3 teaspoons olive oil
2 tsp finely grated lemon zest
1 1/2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/4 cup fresh parsley, roughly chopped
salt and pepper, to taste
1/4 cup feta, crumbled (optional)

DIRECTIONS
Rinse and drain the beans, shaking off as much water as possible.
