Mary-Beth says: “I love the way this salad looks with the toppings piled on top of the green beans. As you serve the toppings will get mixed in but be sure to get a picture when you set the bowl down on the table! I started making this salad in 1998 when I visited Well-Sweep Herb Farm in Port Murray, New Jersey. A friend and I spent the morning buying flowers and herbs and enjoying the peaceful beauty there. The kind folks at Well-Sweep included a few recipes, including this one, in their farm catalog.”
