very refreshing and fine use of leftovers

Cut the cold lamb into 0.5 cm thin strips. Peel and dice the onion, slice the spring onions into rings, and slice the cherry tomatoes. Cook the green beans as usual, let them cool, and then cut them into bite-sized pieces. Mix everything together with the meat in a bowl. For the dressing, press the garlic and mix it well with the yogurt along with the oil, mustard, freshly squeezed lemon juice, salt, and pepper, and blend with a hand blender. Season to taste. Be careful with the horseradish—a little goes a long way. Then stir in the finely chopped herbs. Mix the dressing with the meat and vegetable mixture. Let everything marinate for a few hours. Serve on plates and garnish with herbs, small tomatoes, or lemon slices. Serve with crispy, delicious, freshly baked bread.
