Preparation

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400° Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
Arrange the potato cubes on the prepared baking sheet and toss them with the olive oil, salt and pepper. Roast for 25 minutes, or until tender when pierced with a knife. Remove from the oven and set aside.
Bring a saucepan of salted water to the boil. Add the green beans and cook for 4 to 5 minutes. Rinse under cold water through a strainer. Set aside.
In a large bowl combine all ingredients and toss to coat evenly with the Vegetarian Caesar Dressing. Adjust seasonings with salt and pepper. Let marinate 15 minutes before serving. Transfer to a serving dish and serve.

Vegetarian Caesar Dressing
Combine the lemon juice, vinegar, Worcestershire, mustard, olives, garlic, and cheese in a blender or food processor. Blend to a smooth paste. With the machine on, drizzle in the oil, salt, and pepper. Blend until thick and emulsified, like mayonnaise. Adjust the seasonings with salt and pepper. Transfer to a lidded jar and refrigerate for up to 3 days.
