Farmer's Market Salad - Green Beans, cherry tomato and red potato salad

On a hot summer day, Jim and I biked over to Prospect Park to go to the farmer’s market. I intended not to get anything but the green beans and the yellow-orange-ish cherry tomatoes looked too good. Here’s the salad made up on the fly.

ingredients

a bunch of green beans
a carton of cherry tomatoes
4 -5 small red potatoes
olive oil
lemon juice
salt and pepper
soy sauce

directions

1
Boil water in a medium size pan for the potatoes. Add 2 tablespoons of salt to add flavor to the potatoes. Once the water comes to boil, add the potatoes until the potatoes are soft, 8 minutes or so.
2
At the same time, in a smaller pan, boil water for the green beans. When the water comes to a boil, add the green beans for 2-3 minutes - until the green beans turn a brighter green. Use a collander and hold under cold water under the sink until green beans are cooler.
3
In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, soy sauce, salt, pepper and lemon juice.
4
Add, green beans, potatoes and tomatoes together while the potatoes are hot. Pour the olive oil mixture on top of the vegetables and mix together well.
