02of 17Fiber-Packed Spicy White Bean & Spinach SaladPhotographer: Jen Causey, Food Stylist: Melissa Gray, Prop Stylist: Shell RoysterIn this light and refreshing salad, we season white beans with ras el hanout, a Moroccan spice blend which features cinnamon, cumin, turmeric, ginger, cardamom and ground black and red pepper. If you prefer a creamier texture, gently mash some of the beans as you stir everything together. The bean salad is served on a bed of lightly dressed spinach that pairs well with the beans, but also grilled chicken or steak kebabs on another night.View Recipe
