Here is another tasty salad for summertime cooking. This salad has black-eyed peas, butter beans and fresh green beans. A very fresh and light side dish to some grilling.
We served this with Cedar Plank Salmon, grilled chicken and grilled potatoes. To add some flavor we also had a trio of dipping sauces. A great summer evening meal!
