FRESH GREEN BEAN TOMATO SALAD WITH TARRAGON DRESSING
A light summertime salad. Use the mix of green and yellow beans, or just one kind. Use red and yellow tomatoes. Fresh tarragon works best. Can be made the night before (store beans and dressing separarely in refrigerator). Bring to room temperature before tossing. Great for a picnic because it has no egg or dairy to spoil.

Steps:
- In a saucepan over high heat in 1 inch of water, heat green beans to boiling.
- Reduce heat to low, cover and simmer 5-10 minutes or until green beans are tender crisp; drain.
- In a bowl combine the mayonnaise, tarragon vinegar, salt, mustard and pepper; mix well.
- I like to put the green beans and sliced onions in a large zip-lock bag (less clean up) along with the tarragon dressing mixture, fumbling for dressing to coat green beans.
- If you don't have a large zip-lock bag you can place the green beans and sliced onions in a large dish and toss to coat with the tarragon dressing.
- Cover and refrigerate 2 to 3 hours hours for flavors to blend before serving.
- Garnish with freshly topped tarragon.
- Serve and Enjoy!

GREEN BEAN AND TOMATO SALAD
This simple summer salad pairs beautifully with practically any grilled meat or fish, and it's quite easy to make. Just blanch the green beans until crisp tender, then toss with wedges of ripe tomato and a bright vinaigrette of Dijon mustard, red wine vinegar, garlic, shallots and olive oil. A shower of chopped fresh basil across the top finishes it off.
