Best 7 Garden Bean And Onion Salad Recipes

GREEN BEAN AND TOMATO SALAD

Steps:

• Trim ends of beans and leave them whole.
• Drop beans into a saucepan with salted boiling water. Cook until crisp tender, about 3 to 5 minutes according to the size of the beans. Do not overcook. Drain and let cool.
• Cut away the core of each tomato, and cut it into wedges.
• In a salad bowl, add mustard, vinegar, shallots, garlic, oil, salt and pepper and blend with a wire whisk. Add beans and tomatoes, toss well. Sprinkle with basil.

GREEN BEAN 'N' PEA SALAD

GREEN BEAN RED ONION SALAD

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Trim the green beans.
• Bring 1/4 cup of water to a boil in a large skillet over high heat. Add the beans, sprinkle with salt, cover, and cook until the beans are crisp-tender and the water is evaporated, about 3 minutes.
• Rinse the beans with cold water, pat them thoroughly dry, and set them aside.
• Meanwhile, peel and halve the onion. Slice it into thin half-moons and set aside. (Rinse the slices with cold water to minimize the strong flavor of raw onion , if you like, just be sure to pat them thoroughly dry before you add them to the salad.)
• In a large bowl (large enough to toss all the vegetables), whisk together the oil, vinegar, and mustard. Add salt and pepper to taste.
• Put the cooked beans and the sliced onions in the bowl with the dressing and toss to coat the beans and onions thoroughly.
• You can serve right away or let everything sit and marinate a bit before serving (if you're going to hold it more than about an hour, cover and chill).

STRING BEAN AND ONION SALAD

Steps:

• Bring the water to a boil in a medium-sized saucepan. Trim and wash the beans, remove any blemished ones, place them in the boiling water, and cook for about 5 minutes, or until they are tender but still slightly crisp. Drain the beans, place them in a glass salad bowl, and allow them to cool. Place the onion slices in a small bowl, cover them with the lemon juice, and allow them to soak for 30 minutes. When ready to serve, add the onions to the string beans, drizzle them with olive oil, season with salt and pepper, and serve at room temperature.
