Green Bean Tomato Salad
Hi. It’s Lois at Recipe Idea Shop, telling you about one of my favorite salads, Green Bean Tomato Salad.
This is another Moosewood Restaurant recipe (Sundays at Moosewood Restaurant), 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.
