1/4 cup olive oil |
3 green onions, sliced |
3 tablespoons red wine vinegar |
1 garlic clove, pressed |
1 teaspoon ground cumin |

3/4 pound small fresh green beans, steamed |
6 large firm tomatoes |

Directions:
1. Combine first 9 ingredients in a shallow dish or a heavy-duty zip-top plastic bag; add black beans and green beans. Cover or seal, and let mixture stand 30 minutes.
2. Cut a 1/4-inch slice from top of each tomato; scoop out and discard pulp, leaving tomato shells intact. Invert tomato shells, and drain on paper towels.
