Green Bean Egg Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Bring a large pot with lightly salted water to a boil over high heat. Add beans and cook, uncovered, until soft but still firm to the bite, 7 to 10 minutes. Check often so beans don't overcook.
• Combine vinegar, olive oil, onion, garlic, parsley, sugar, salt, and pepper in a large bowl.
• Drain cooked green beans and mix with dressing in the bowl while still warm. Allow to marinate at room temperature for at least 1 hour. Serve at room temperature or chilled.

Steps:

• Thinly slice half the onion; soak in cold water. Mince 1 tablespoon of the remaining onion half; process with the goat cheese, buttermilk, vinegar, olive oil, horseradish, mustard, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste in a blender until smooth. Add 1 tablespoon water if needed.
• Put the potatoes in a pot of salted water; bring to a simmer and cook until tender, about 18 minutes. Drain and pat dry. Meanwhile, put the eggs in another pot of salted water; boil for 8 to 10 minutes, then remove to a bowl of cold water. Add the green beans to the same pot of boiling water; cook until crisp-tender, about 3 minutes. Drain, run under cold water and pat dry. Peel and slice the eggs.
• Drain the red onion slices. Toss in a bowl with the salad greens, green beans and half of the dressing. Top with the potatoes, tomato and hard-boiled egg slices. Drizzle with the remaining dressing.

Steps:

• Put the eggs and turnips in a saucepan, cover with water and bring to a boil. Remove from the heat and let stand, covered, 10 minutes. Remove the eggs but keep the turnips in the hot water, covered, until tender, 2 to 3 more minutes. Peel the eggs and cut into quarters.
• Drain the turnips, then return to the warm pan and toss with the butter (turn on the heat to melt the butter if needed). Add the tarragon, chives, olive oil and lemon juice and toss.
• Toss the endive, lettuce, escarole, celery and beans in a large
• bowl and season with salt and pepper. Add the eggs and turnip mixture and gently toss again.

Steps:

• Peel and quarter the eggs. Cook the potatoes in a large pan of boiling water for 8-10 mins or until tender. Tip in the beans for the final 3 mins, then add the peas for the final min. Drain all the veg, cool under cold running water, then drain really well.
• For the dressing, mix the juice, mustard and honey together. Season, then pour over the veg. Fold through the ham and top with the eggs. Serve with bread, if you like.

Steps:

• Slice the potatoes, there's no need to skin them, then cook in boiling salted water until tender, about 20 mins, adding the beans halfway through. Drain well, then toss in 1 tbsp olive oil.
• Boil the eggs for 5 mins, drain, cool and shell. Quarter, deseed and chop the tomato. Heat the remaining oil in a frying pan, fry the lardoons until crisp and turning brown. Add the garlic and tomato and heat through briefly.
• Divide the potatoes and beans between two plates. Stir the basil and vinegar into the pan and heat through briefly, then spoon over the salad. Cut the eggs in half and sit them on top.
