This green bean salad is packed full of the tastes of mushrooms, red onion, garlic and green beans.

Ingredients

  • 12 oz. fresh small green beans, ends trimmed
  • 8 fresh mushrooms, sliced
  • 1/2 C. chopped red onion
  • 3 Tbs. canola or corn oil
  • 1 Tbs. balsamic or red wine vinegar
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1/4 tsp. freshly ground pepper

Directions

Cook the green beans in a large pot of boiling water for 5 minutes; drain. Plunge the beans into a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking and retain their bright green color. Drain and place in a large bowl. Add the mushrooms and onions to the beans; toss to mix. For the dressing, whisk the oil into the vinegar in a small bowl; add the remaining ingredients and pour over the green beans. Toss lightly. Serve immediately.

Yield: 4 Servings.
