Steps:
- Toast pumpkin seeds in a dry small heavy skillet over moderately low heat, stirring frequently, until puffed but not browned, about 6 minutes. (If using pine nuts, toast until pale golden, about 7 minutes.) Transfer to a plate to cool. Reserve 1 tablespoon seeds, then purée remaining seeds in a blender with garlic, oil, water, lemon juice, cumin, salt, and 1 tablespoon cilantro until smooth.
- Cook beans in a large pot of boiling salted water until just tender, 4 to 6 minutes. Drain in a colander, then plunge into a bowl of ice and cold water to stop cooking. Drain beans and pat dry.
- Arrange beans on a plate and drizzle with two thirds of dressing. Top with tomatoes and remaining dressing, then sprinkle with remaining tablespoon cilantro and reserved pumpkin seeds.

[email protected]This salad was okay, but nothing special. The dressing was a bit too sweet for my taste and the green beans were a bit tough. I would not make this salad again.

[email protected]This salad was a bit bland for my taste. I think it could have used more seasoning or a different dressing. The roasted pumpkin seeds were a nice touch, but they didn't add enough flavor to the salad.
