Green Bean Salad with Lemony Dressing Recipe
We’ve all experienced a questionable serving of green beans at some stage in our lives: the boiled-to-death, soggy, grey-tinged version. These are the food experiences that turn people into vegie enemies. It pains me to think the green bean isn’t always able to display its true splendour, but when given the respect it deserves, the humble green bean accompaniment can drop jaws. This dish does just that with its zingy flavour and unquestionable crunch.
