Steps:
- Bring 8 cups water to a boil in a medium stock pot. Place beans in the boiling water and cook until crisp-tender, 7 to 8 minutes.
- While beans are cooking, combine tomato and onion in a medium serving bowl. Add 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar and olive oil. Mix in 1 teaspoon garlic salt, basil, and pepper.
- Drain beans in a colander, then rinse with cold water until they are no longer hot. Gently mix beans into the tomato mixture, spooning until beans are completely coated. Add remaining balsamic vinegar. Sprinkle the last pinch of garlic salt over top of beans; do not stir. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
- Remove from the refrigerator, mix well, and serve.

desmond-t@gmail.comThis salad is a great way to use up leftover green beans. I also like to add some crumbled goat cheese or feta cheese for an extra creamy and tangy flavor.
