Green beans salad
August 12, 2012 • Category: Salads
A salad like this one is filling yet super simple to make; add some hard-boiled eggs if you’d like and make it your entire lunch or dinner.
INGREDIENTS: 4 servings
- 1 pound of green beans
- 1 white onion
- 2 large tomatoes
- 3 tbsp of balsamic vinegar
- 6 tbsp of olive oil
- salt, as needed
METHOD:
- Cut off the tips of the green beans; steam or boil in one inch of water till tender yet still crunchy. Dice the tomatoes. Slice the onion; mix the vinegar and oil in a small bowl and transfer to the salad bowl; toss and serve.

Madame Joumana,
Tout d’abord, je vous félicite pour la qualité de votre blog alliant gastronomie et art de vivre de ce beau pays qu’est le Liban.
En effet, chaque post est un véritable voyage culturel, encore une fois merci pour vos efforts de faire partager votre culture riche et séculaire.
Comme beaucoup d’arabes, je ne vous cache pas mon admiration envers le Liban et les libanais, fort célèbres pour leur art de vivre, leur culture, leurs écrivains et leurs artistes.
Enfin, que le Tout Puissant nous accorde la paix et nous éloignent de l’obscurantisme et le fanatisme (Amin ya Rab).
Bons baisers de Casablanca

@Amina: Merci beaucoup Amina, votre message m’a beaucoup touchée! Hier encore avec des amis réunis autour de notre table on parlait du Maroc et de sa beauté et richesse; je n’y suis encore jamais allée! J’espère visiter un jour pas trop lointain ce pays fascinant et connaitre ses habitants si chaleureux. Je vous embrasse, Joumana
