Number Of Ingredients 7

Kosher salt
3 cups shelled fava beans
1 small red onion, thinly sliced

This salad is a great way to use up leftover fava beans. I had some leftover from another recipe and this was the perfect way to use them up.

I followed the recipe exactly and the salad turned out beautifully. The fava beans were tender and flavorful, the pecorino cheese added a salty tang, and the dressing was light and refreshing.
