beans

I was looking for a “healthy” summer dinner that I could put together in under an hour… 4 courses later and with MANY minutes to spare, dinner was on the table!

Menu:

• Turkey Kofta with Tahini Sauce
• Giant White Beans
• Watermelon Salad with Halloumi
• Grilled Zucchini (not pictured… we were too hungry to take pictures!)

The salad is easy to whip up… I did the following:

1. Cubed half a watermelon.
2. Tear about 15 leaves of mint onto watermelon.
3. Top with 3 slices of grilled halloumi cheese (you want grill marks and will get some yummy, melty cheese)
4. Squeeze juice of one lemon onto salad.

The beans are from Trader Joe’s and great warmed up straight out of the jar… I mean I spent hours slaving on them… oh wait…

We also sliced and grilled zucchini on kebabs on the grill while the cheese cooked… a super delicious, light and tasty meal!
