Lemons are one of the most common flavours to be found in Greek cooking.  I have always loved the tartness of lemons, so this Greek style salad really ticks the box for me.

• 2 x 400g can butter beans, drained and rinsed
• 1/4 cup chopped fresh flat leaf parsley
• 1/4 cup chopped fresh mint leaves
• 2 Tbsp. olive oil
• 1 Tbsp. lemon juice
• 1 Tsp. lemon zest
• 1 clove garlic, crushed
• Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
• Slices of lemon for garnish

 
Method

• Combine beans, parsley and mint in a salad bowl.
• In a small screw top jar, combine the oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, garlic, salt and pepper. Screw the lid on and shake to combine.
