A light herb vinaigrette makes this tangy salad so refreshing for a warm summer evening, notes Marian Platt of Sequim, Washington.

2 pounds fresh green or wax beans, trimmed
3 green onions, sliced
2/3 cup minced fresh basil
2 to 4 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons cider or red wine vinegar
1/2 teaspoon salt
pepper to taste
2/3 cup grated romano cheese
Directions:
1. Cut beans into 1-1/4-in. pieces. Place in a saucepan and cover with water bring to a boil. Cook, uncovered, for 10 minutes or until crisp-tender. Rinse with cold water and drain well.
