🍲 Ingredients
Butter Beans – Also known as lima beans, butter beans have a creamy and buttery flavor and are so good for you. They are rich in vitamins, and minerals, and are a source of potassium, magnesium, folate, iron, zinc, and of course, protein.
Hardboiled Eggs – The hardboiled eggs just add another boost of protein to this dish. Eggs are an important part of a healthy diet. They can help improve muscle health and aid in the protection against several diseases. They are also a cost-efficient protein to add to your meals and side dishes.
👩🍳 How to Make Butter Beans
- In a small bowl whisk together 3 tbsp olive oil, pressed garlic cloves, lemon juice, dijon mustard, chili flakes, honey and salt. Set aside.
- To a medium frying pan add 1 tbsp olive oil over medium heat. Once warm, turn to medium-low and add the butter beans and a pinch of salt. Cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until warm.
- Transfer the beans and any olive oil from the pan to a medium-sized bowl. Add the diced onion, minced parsley and diced hardboiled egg. Drizzle the dressing over top of the ingredients and toss to combine. Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt if desired. Serve and enjoy.
🪄 Tips and Tricks
- Red Onion: Swap for green onion or white onion if you don’t have red onion
- Eggs: Not into eggs? You can remove these from this recipe or even swap them with shredded chicken or tofu
- Beans: If you can’t find butter beans, you can make this recipe with chickpeas too
🗒 Best served with
- Chicken Souvlaki
- Greek Meatball Recipe
- Fluffy Greek Pita Bread
👝 How to Store Leftovers
While this salad is delicious as soon as it’s made, you can also meal prep this salad. We recommend simply slicing the hardboiled eggs in half (instead of dicing) and packing them that way along with each serving of bean salad.
🤔 Common Questions
Absolutely and you’ll find the name used interchangeably in the grocery store and in recipes.
Yes! Use it as a marinade, on salad, on bowls, whatever you wish! It’s a simple, classic dressing.
