I made this recently and thought it was delicious! I did not see anything exactly like it on Recipe Zaar so I decided to post it. This was originally from Beat That Cookbook by Ann Hodgman. I found it almost better the next day - just bring it to room temperature before serving.
Ingredients:
1 lb green beans, trimmed
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1 tablespoon dijon mustard
1 large garlic clove, minced
1/4 cup corn oil
2 tablespoons fresh basil, minced
2 tablespoons fresh flat leaf parsley, minced
1 lb plum tomato, seeds removed and chopped
1/4 cup red onion, minced
salt and pepper
Directions:
1. Steam the beans for 5 minutes and plunge into cold water to stop the cooking. Drain.
2. Combine vinegar, mustard and garlic in a large bowl and whisk together.
3. Add oil gradually to achieve a vinaigrette.
4. Stir in the basil, parsley, salt and pepper.
5. Add the beans, tomatoes and onion and toss to coat.
6. Serve at room temperature.
