Beans 'n' Greens image

Tasty and a snap to make, this side dish is a guaranteed salad bar star. The tangy marinade dresses up the green beans, spinach and lettuce nicely. I keep the recipe at the front of my easy-to-make file. -Dorothy Pritchett, Wills Point, Texas

This recipe is a bit too spicy for my taste. I would recommend using less cayenne pepper.

I've tried this recipe several times and it's always been a disappointment. The beans are always undercooked and the greens are tough.
