Green Bean, Cherry Tomato and Corn Salad

Vegetarian Times Issue: July 1, 2006   p.63

The right combination of a few simple ingredients can taste truly spectacular. That’s the case with this summery salad. Feel free to use other types of fresh beans, and tomato wedges in place of the cherry tomatoes.

Directions

  1. Cook green beans in large pot of boiling salted water 4 minutes, or until crisp-tender. Drain. Refresh under cold water. Drain well. Transfer to large bowl.
  2. Add tomatoes, corn, oregano, capers and garlic to beans, and toss gently.
  3. Whisk together lemon juice and oil. Add to bean mixture, and stir gently to combine. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Cover, and let stand at room temperature 30 minutes to develop flavors. Serve.
