I'm not sure why this salad is called 'warm'. I served it cold and it was delicious.

I'm not a huge fan of basil, but I still enjoyed this salad. The dressing is light and flavorful, and the pine nuts add a nice crunch.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover green beans. I always have a few extra beans after I make a green bean casserole, and this is the perfect way to use them up.

I tried this salad with a few different variations. I added some crumbled goat cheese and it was delicious! I also tried it with roasted red peppers and it was equally good.
