Senegalese Black-eyed peas are not just for New Years! They are delicious little white beans with a mild taste and smooth texture, and as such can and should be enjoyed year-round.

This simple, refreshing bean salad recipe makes a great summer side or potluck dish. I added leftover brown basmati rice and sliced avocado to make it a complete meal.

½ cup fresh lime juice (about 2 ½ limes, juiced)

1 cup chopped parsley

2 serrano peppersor 1 habanero or Scotch bonnet chile, stemmed, seeded, and minced
