Spanish Green Bean Salad
I have been making this recipe for more than 25 years. It is easy-to-make and very colourful. Serve it cold, warm or at room temperature -- i prefer at room temp. It's a great make-ahead recipe because it keeps well for several days in the fridge. Adapted from a better homes and gardens cookbook.
Steps
Cook beans in the microwave for 6-7 minutes until crisp-tender.
Or you can cook in a pan with a small amount of boiling water.
Put the next 9 ingredients in a jar with a lid.
Cover and shake well.
Pour dressing over beans , stir well and refrigerate.
Serve over shredded lettuce -- at whatever temperature you prefer.
It takes at least an hour for this to come to room temperature after being in the fridge.
Ingredients
green beans, red bell peppers, olive oil, balsamic vinegar, lemon juice, red onion, fresh parsley, sugar, salt, pepper, lettuce
