Baby Lima Bean Salad – Vinaigrette Recipe

Whenever we decide to change our eating habits, we begin to search for new recipes to expand our culinary horizons.

Today I put together this Baby Lima Bean Vinaigrette salad, which is very healthful, vegetarian, and fits perfectly in the Fat Smash Diet category I am currently following.  It is full of protein from the Lima Beans, plus the goodness of the other vegetables and seeds incorporated into it.

You can use the Flax Seeds or the Trilogy Health Seeds, listed in the ingredients of this recipe.

You can use it as a healthful snack, or serve it on a bed of lettuce with some additional nuts, tomato wedges, or shredded carrots for a light lunch.

This recipe yields 2.5 cups of salad or 5 servings.
