I saw this recipe in food and wine and had to try it. I'm so glad I did!
Every Sunday after church I like to have friends over for some mingle time and food :)
On today's menu:
Cheese burgers (pretty typical)
Corn on the cob
A super yummy zucchini bread made by my friend Samantha
And this "Summer vegetable ceviche"
Total time
2h and 30min
1c baby Lima beans (or other shelling beans, I used chickpeas)
1tsp lime zest
1/3c fresh lime juice
1/4c extra virgin olive oil
1 scallion, thinly sliced
1 jalepeño, seeded and thinly sliced
1small shallot, thinly sliced
Sea salt
1 1/2c corn
2 nectarines, cut in thin wedges
1 avocado cut in small cubes
1 large orange bell pepper, finely julienned
1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved
1/2 cut coarsely chopped cilantro.
1. In a small sauce pan of salted boiling water, cook Lima beans until tender. About 10 mins. Drain and rinse with cold water.
2. In a large bowl, whisk lime zest and juice with olive oil, scallion, jalepeño, and shallot; season the dressing with salt. Gently fold in the beans, corn, nectarines, avocado, orange pepper and tomatoes. Refrigerate the ceviche for 2 hours.
Add cilantro right before serving.
You can let this marinade for up to 8 hours.
I didn't have the time to let it sit for 2 hours because it was a last minute decision BUT it turned out great!
Its sweet and citrusy not spicy at all. And I love that it has a crunch to it.
