If I am in a dilemma on what to have for dinner, I usually do a quick scan of the pantry and some creation will come of it. This is a great salad for any occasion and is made from a combination of pantry and fridge items.
SALMON, BEETROOT AND BUTTER BEAN SALAD RECIPE

Dressing
2 Tbsp olive oil
1 Tbsp white balsamic vinegar

2. Peel and cut the beetroot into thin sticks and place into a large bowl. Add the butter beans, avocado, lemon, feta, salmon and parsley. Very gently combine with half the dressing.
