Marinated Green Bean And Butter Bean Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Bring water to a boil in a pot. Add green beans and cook until just crisp-tender, 4 to 5 minutes. Drain and rinse immediately in cold water.
• Transfer green beans to a large bowl and stir in corn, black beans, tomatoes, celery, bell pepper, and onion.
• Mix apple cider vinegar, sugar, olive oil, salt, and pepper together in a small bowl. Pour over vegetables and stir to coat. Refrigerate, covered, for 4 hours, or up to overnight.

Steps:

• Prepare an ice-water bath. Cook green beans in boiling salted water, just until bright green and tender, about 5 minutes. Reserving the cooking liquid, remove beans with a large slotted spoon; transfer to ice-water bath to stop the cooking. Transfer beans to a colander. Cook butter beans in the boiling cooking liquid, just until tender, 5 minutes if frozen. Strain; place under cold, running water to stop cooking. Set aside.
• Make vinaigrette: In a medium bowl, combine vinegar, mustard, salt and pepper to taste, and minced shallot. Whisk in olive oil until vinaigrette is creamy. Whisk in tarragon and parsley.
• In a large bowl, toss green beans until well coated with about three-quarters of the vinaigrette. In a large bowl or on a platter, arrange the green beans in an even layer. Sprinkle the reserved butter beans over the top. Drizzle the remaining vinaigrette over the beans. Garnish with tarragon and parsley. Serve at room temperature.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the beans, peppers, onion and garlic. In a small bowl, combine the remaining ingredients. Pour over bean mixture and toss to coat. Chill until serving.

Steps:

• Mix together the peas, corn, green beans, pimentos, celery, bell pepper and onion.
• In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the sugar, black pepper, salt, oil and vinegar. Bring to a boil and pour over salad; mix well to coat. Refrigerate for 24 hours.

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients in a medium bowl. Toss to coat beans and vegetables evenly in dressing.

Steps:

• Prepare a large bowl of ice water. Bring a large saucepan of salted water to a boil. Add the green beans and cook until just tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Drain and add to the ice water to stop the cooking. Drain and pat very dry. Add to a serving bowl along with the cannellini beans, chickpeas, tomatoes, sliced celery and leaves, red onion, peperoncini, olives and parsley.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, peperoncini brine, sugar, 1 teaspoon salt and several grinds of pepper. Whisk in the olive oil to make a smooth dressing. Pour over the bean mixture and toss well. Season with salt if needed. This salad can be made a day ahead --- the green beans may discolor a bit because of the lemon juice but will taste even better with the longer marination time.

Steps:

• Combine all dressing ingredients in a small bowl and whisk until well combined.
• Gently boil new potatoes in a saucepan until potatoes are tender. Drain and set aside.
• Steam green beans in a steamer basket until tender.
• Drain under cold water to stop cooking. Set aside.
• Cut warm potatoes into quarters and add all vegetables and potatoes to a medium bowl.
• Pour all the dressing over the potatoes and vegetables and mix gently to combine.
• Add salt and pepper to taste and serve this salad warm or room temperature.
• ENJOY!
