Ingredients

2 bunches broccoli, trimmed, florets and stems cut into 1-inch pieces (4 cups)
3 large garlic cloves, thinly sliced
5 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 teaspoon coarse salt
1 pound large cherry tomatoes, halved (about 3 cups)
1 tablespoon coarsely chopped fresh oregano
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 1/2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon red-wine vinegar
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
Freshly ground pepper
2 cups drained jarred or canned large white beans, such as large lima beans or gigande beans
2 ounces baby spinach (about 2 cups)

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Preheat the oven to 375°F. Toss together broccoli, half the garlic, 2 teaspoons oil, and 1/4 teaspoon salt, and arrange on a rimmed baking sheet. Roast until broccoli is just tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Transfer to a plate; let cool completely.

    Step 2

    Toss together tomatoes, remaining garlic, the oregano, red pepper flakes, remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon oil. Arrange on baking sheet. Roast until tomatoes have softened and skins begin to wrinkle, 15 to 20 minutes. Transfer to a plate; let cool completely.

    Step 3

    Whisk mustard, vinegar, and lemon juice in a small bowl. Whisk in remaining 2 teaspoons oil; season with pepper.

    Step 4

    Just before serving, toss together beans, broccoli, tomatoes, spinach, and dressing. The salad can be refrigerated in an airtight container up to 8 hours.
