3 pounds fresh string beans, trimmed
2 cups red onions, thinly sliced
1/4 pound prosciutto di Parma, thinly sliced and cut into long, thin strands*

*Stack several slices prosciutto and slice into long, thin strands no more than 1/8-inch thick.

I'm not a big fan of string beans, but I loved this salad. The dressing is amazing and the prosciutto adds a nice salty flavor.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover string beans. I also added some chopped walnuts for extra crunch.

This recipe is quick and easy to follow. I didn't have any prosciutto, so I used bacon instead. It was still delicious!
