White Bean + Cucumber Summer Salad
My new kitchen! Ahhhh it’s finally complete, and I can’t wait to share exciting new recipes I’ve developed for you.
For my first dish, I’ve come up with a quick ‘n easy white bean + cucumber summer salad. It comes together in just a few minutes, so it’s an awesome dish to toss together on a busy weeknight. It’s also a great make-ahead salad because you can let all the delicious herbs, olive oil, lemon juice, and veggies marinade in it.
Take a look at the recipe below, and let me know what you think! Also, check out my fun YouTube video that I posted!
