GRANDMA'S SWEET AND TANGY BEAN SALAD



Grandma's Sweet and Tangy Bean Salad image

I've never been a huge bean salad fan, due to the textures primarily. However, this bean salad my grandmother and mother passed along is great because it adds a good crunchiness with cucumbers, green peppers, onion, and celery!

1 pound green beans

1/2 cup finely chopped red onion
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon red-wine vinegar
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste

Green Beans and Sweet Red Bell Pepper Salad image

From a Caribbean/Central American/Mexican cookbook by the Hermes Publishing House. Use crisp and fresh vegetables-this is not the recipe to use up older vegetables from the back of your frig. If fresh, good quality green beans are unavailable, use a top quality frozen brand.

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil (good quality!)
