I'm not a big fan of lima beans, so I substituted edamame instead. The salad was still delicious!

This salad is a great way to use up leftover zucchini. I added some chopped red onion for extra flavor.

I found the dressing to be a bit too lemony for my taste. I added a bit of honey to balance out the flavors.
