Maybe 30 years ago we had a girl, Pascaline, from
Belgium live with us. We had to bring a dish for a pot luck party and she
suggested a salad dish of rice, green beans, onions, oil and vinegar. Then her
mom, Therese, came another time and made one of our now standby favorites:
potatoes, green beans cooked together with a little butter.
We had some left over BBQ’d small potatoes, green
beans and other ingredients. It was a warm evening so I’d decided on a potato
salad.
Small
cooked potatoes, chopped into bite-size pieces, just warm.
Green
Beans cut up and cooked
A
little onion chopped fine
Olive
oil to taste.
A
spoonful of mustard to taste.
I’m not
crazy about vinegar so I don’t use it but you can to make the vinaigrette.
Mix
the oil and mustard together, I find a whisk works well.
Add
to the potatoes, green beans and onion in a bowl and toss until the potatoes
and beans are coated.
We
had this along with a green salad for dinner. Very filling!
