Looking for the perfect side dish to enjoy during a heat wave? Try this Summer Lima Bean Salad. It’s gluten-free, vegan, and so easy to make.
My mom has made this salad every year for as long as I could remember. It’s so easy to make and enjoy for a few days and the longer the flavors sit together, the better the flavor. Summertime always meant grilling tacos and enjoying this side salad. It’s a great refreshing way to enjoy lima beans which are not a veggie you see most people eat on the regular. Minimal ingredients and is absolutely tasty.
Here’s What You Need
- frozen bag lima beans
- red onions
- basil
- parsley
- tomatoes
- salt
- pepper
- olive oil
- lemon juice

- I like to let the flavors marinate for a few hours before serving so feel free to prep this early and serve it for dinner.
