Green Bean Tomato Salad. What’s not to love?

Green Bean Tomato Salad

Hi. It’s Lois at Recipe Idea Shop, telling you about one of my favorite salads, Green Bean Tomato Salad.

It is an adaptation of another Moosewood Restaurant recipe. It’s from Sundays at Moosewood Restaurant (affiliate link), and it is SO good. It was quick and easy to make, too. The original description says, “This versatile side dish is served in Chile, especially in the summer, when green beans and tomatoes are abundant.”

This is the perfect summer or anytime salad. It is very flavorful and eye-catching. It’s best made with fresh green beans, but you could substitute cooked and cooled, frozen green beans. We are so lucky in the United States. We have fresh vegetables available year round.

WHAT YOU NEED

You’ll want a vegetable steamer and a beautiful serving bowl for this recipe. You also need measuring cups and spoons, knife, cutting board, and garlic mincer.
