Pretty bland; next day I added chopped red onions and feta and it was much better
A wonderful summer salad. I used frozen edamame instead of beans, which I boiled for about 5 minutes and then shelled. Flavors went beautifully together. I think I'll add a little jalapeno when I make this again (tomorrow).
