TUSCAN WHITE BEAN SALAD WITH SHRIMP
Fragrant fresh rosemary and mild, creamy cannellini beans are a fantastic duo. Beyond salads, try mashing the beans with rosemary and olive oil for a crostini topper or stirring into soup. We add minced rosemary to the dressing here rather than simmering the beans with whole sprigs, which would be too strong. Poaching the shrimp in their shells keeps them from overcooking. You can make a quick stock from the shells for gumbos and chowders: Simmer with carrots, onions, celery, bay leaves, a few black peppercorns, and plenty of water for about 1 hour, and then strain and refrigerate.

SHRIMP & CANNELLINI SALAD WITH TARRAGON VINAIGRETTE
This salad is satisfying enough to work as a main course, but if you're expecting weeknight dinner guests, take the "small plates" approach and serve it with other quick and versatile dishes like Bruschetta with Grilled Eggplant and Grilled Chicken with Tomato, Lime & Cilantro Salsa. Pull out a bottle of wine for a relaxed summertime supper and let your guests nibble as they like.

TANGY TARRAGON SHRIMP SALAD
This shrimp salad reminds me of one of the great lunches of my life, sitting on the front porch of the wonderful grocery in Seaside, Florida...plump, pink shrimp in a fresh tarragon dressing spooned onto saltine crackers, with an ice cold beer, and great friends. From the Pat Conroy Cookbook.

WHITE BEANS WITH TARRAGON
The best way to enjoy this dish is with dried beans, freshly cooked to perfection and fresh tarragon, never dried. My favorite way to serve it is hot but it can be served as a salad at room temperature as well. From Rozanne Gold, a favorite cookbook author. Cook time includes time to soak beans.
