This Butter Bean Salad would make a great lunch salad to take to work. |
When it's September and garden tomatoes and basil are are still plentiful, something you'll always find in my fridge is Basil Vinaigrette. This combination of chopped basil and vinaigrette dressing is my favorite thing for drizzling over sliced tomatoes. The basil vinaigrette has endless uses, and this time a touch of it was the perfect flavor to add some pizazz to this simple salad of butter beans, sun-dried tomatoes, Kalamata olives, and cubes of Feta cheese.
