This tasty salad was introduced into our family by my sister Jen. It is a most unusual treatment of green beans. We are used to them being cooked and served hot. This salad, with a taste of Mediterranean flavours will be welcomed by your family and guests. It is fantastic to travel with and have with a cold chicken salad or make a meal on its own with crusty warm bread
