“I make this simple salad often for summer barbecues,” writes Denise Neal of Castle Rock, Colorado. “People always like it and ask for the recipe. It can be made a day ahead and kept in the fridge. And it’s good served cold or at room temperature.” TIP: Use care when tossing the salad with the dressing to prevent the tender butter beans from getting crushed.
Ingredients:
1 can (16 ounces) butter beans, rinsed and drained
1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved
1 small red onion, chopped
1/2 cup diced yellow summer squash
1/2 cup diced zucchini
1/4 cup minced fresh cilantro
dressing:
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon salt
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine the beans, tomatoes, onion, yellow squash, zucchini and cilantro. In a small bowl, whisk the dressing ingredients. Drizzle over salad; gently toss to coat. Cover and chill until serving. Yield: 5-6 servings.
