Last week when I had my brothers' family over for lunch, I made this delicious Garden Bean Salad! It's super simple and very delicious so I highly recommend it!
Ingredients:
1 small red onion, finely diced
1/4 c. apple cider vinegar
2 t. sugar
Kosher salt
1/4 c. extra-virgin olive oil
1 15-oz. can of white beans, drained and rinsed
3/4 lb. green and/or wax beans, trimmed and halved
2 T. finely chopped fresh parsley
2 T. finely chopped fresh chives
Freshly ground pepper
Now the post, in photos (which are kind of crappy because I was sort of in a rush to get this salad made before my brothers' family arrived).
 |
| Finely dice the onion and soak in water for 10 minutes (never had to soak an onion before... kind of odd, but whatever!) |
 |
| Drain the onion, pat dry. Stir onion and white beans into the dressing. |
 |
| Bring salted water to a boil, add beans and cook for 4-5 minutes until beans are crisp-tender. |
 |
| Add chopped parsley and chives and serve! |
See? Pretty easy, right? Not a whole lot of chopping either. I think I threw it together in about 30 minutes.
Have you tried any new recipes this summer?

Quick, easy and looks delectable!
Happy Friday!
Yum! Nice granite there, Lisa!!!
Weird, I am procrastinating and I was like "I wonder if Lisa did a dairy free friday post" and BAM you did haha.
Sounds really yummy :) Have a good weekend!
That looks great! I love green bean summer salads. Or any summer salads really, but I have a special fondness for green beans.
I am still on the lookout for coconut milk ice cream.
This sounds delicious!
Yum! I'm going to have to make a version of this for my lunches this next week!
Mmm - looks so fresh and delicious!
That looks really tasty!
I have tried a bunch of new recipes, most of which aren't gluten free/dairy free otherwise I'd be happy to share. I have a bunch of new ones I want to try that I keep finding in the fabulous Rachel Ray magazines! Kind of makes me excited for fall to try new baking recipes + entrees :)
Quick and easy that is my kind of cooking! It looks delicious!
Yum!! I have this aversion to the smell of apple cider vinegar for some reason, not the taste, just the smell. Maybe I will have to have Rachel make this so I can *forget* that it is in it because it looks awesome!
Looks great! I love bean salads so I will definitely be making this soon. Maybe this weekend for our guests!
ive been making a cuc,tomato,feta, onion, green olive and fresh pea salad. evoo and red wine vinegar for dressing. oh and i add green olives.
That salad looks delicious! I'm gonna have to try it out sometime soon. Thanks for sharing.
Delicious! I am going to make this. And I'm with Barb - gorgeous granite
I have tried a few new recipes this summer, but not as many as I normally do in the summer. Hopefully I can sneak a few more in before I go back to work at the end of August.
