For an extra layer of flavor, try grilling the green beans before marinating them. If you don't have fresh oregano, you can substitute 1 teaspoon of dried oregano. Feel free to add other vegetables like cucumbers or bell peppers to the salad. Marinating overnight is highly recommended, the flavors meld together beautifully.
