Hermit Salad
I can't give you measurements. You can figure it out what you need.
Have a boiled potato. Cut into bite size pieces. Cook the green beans until just tender. While they're cooking slice an onion very thin. Use as much onion as you like but a little goes a long way and you don't want to overwhelm the other delicate flavors. Chop a clove of garlic--again as much as you like. In a bowl (I prefer a baking dish as it's flat and everything gets coated more easily) you figure will hold everything add the onions, garlic, a couple tablespoons of olive oil, some lemon juice or cider vinegar or rice wine vinegar, add some chopped basil and parsley. Add some fresh mozzarella in bite size pieces. If you have a good tomato, you may add that--no rule prohibiting that. Salt and pepper to taste. You might want to add a pinch of sugar. Let the green beans cool as the other ingredients are marinating. Gently combine the beans and the potatoes with the other ingredients. Refrigerate until cool.
