A delicious salad indeed

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.

Good book

Recently I was told about the "outlander" series by Diana Gabaldon. I didn't think I would be able to get into it because part of it is written in a brogue. Once I got passed that I was hooked!
I also found out, now that I'm hooked... That starz is making it into a series on TV!! I cannot explain how excited I am.

So to tell a bit about the book...
It's about a woman named Claire. She's living in the 1940's with her husband and gets somehow sent back in time to the 18th century where she is forced to marry  a man to save her life.
This is all I can give away at this point. I strongly recommend this book and I can't wait to start the 2nd one.
